In reality, the “800” reading needs to be sustained and not decay. This test should be performed under WOT and under a heavy load such as running up a long hill. If it does not the sensor is bad. Replace it.
Good call, will add that to the list. It's getting close to air filter change time as well, so I might do that a little early, too. I don't like to open the housing to check filter if I'm not replacing it.I think that you're headed in the right path. While at things I'd also suggest making sure your air intake path is clear- check for a clogged up snowscreen (may or may not have one- there's a relief port that's supposed to open up in cases were a snowscreen is clogged, but I wouldn't rely on it being as functional as a clean snow screen).
I would get the vacuum working correctly first before throwing guess parts in it.Thanks for the tip, Copa! IC is draining right now.
So I temporarily fixed the brake booster hose. I also found that the N75 is working correctly. The vane actuator does not work at all, it does not hold vacuum. I am able to move the rod by hand, not sure how much, though.
So I will order all vacuum hoses and a new actuator, and will see from there.
Is it OK to drive the car as is for now? Or should I leave it parked?
Right, I actually got about 20 inhg now at the vacuum out Port of the N75.I would get the vacuum working correctly first before throwing guess parts in it.
This gets expensive quickly.
Measure the vacuum going to the actuator with the car running.
You need at least 20 inches vacuum for the actuator to go to full.
With a vacuum pump the actuator should start to move at 3 inches or so and be at full at 19 inches or so.
The actuator has to hold vacuum also.
OK, if it did not hold vacuum then the diaphragm is bad.Right, I actually got about 20 inhg now at the vacuum out Port of the N75.
However, I attached the Pump directly to the actuator and pumped and nothing happened, it did not build our hold vacuum.

I regular refrain around my place is: "Maximum effort!" Seems that everything has to turn into a battle.Nothing is ever add easy at it should be.
I know that feeling.I regular refrain around my place is: "Maximum effort!" Seems that everything has to turn into a battle.
Some time back I cleaned the exhaust fans and ducting in my two bathrooms. Messy job. Knocked off one in a fairly short amount of time. Second one, however, was, as the refrain goes, "Maximum Effort." WTH? There was a wasp nest up in there and blocking the exhaust flap. This was, of course, up above some wheel-spoke like thing that wasn't removable- the nest wouldn't come down through it. Poke. Poke. Poke... It would only move around. "Brain storm!" Wet it! Spritz, spritz, spritz... Poke, poke, poke... Yuck! Water and crap everywhere! (I did, however, have some plastic sheeting down- that was done first off, to catch, no wasp nest debris, but the normal crud you'd expect to come out)I know that feeling.
I changed 2 ballasts in my kitchen light to install LED lights.
Close to an hour.
Everything was open in 2 minutes.
I figured it should have been 20 minutes max.
Car repairs seem just as bad other then routine maintenance.
That is very true, good thing to keep in mind.BUT, I didn't injure myself, which one should always feel thankful for/about.
