Headlight Vacuum System Leak
Well I checked my headlights with a vacuum guage. The inner seal holds vacuum but the outer seal does not. Which means that my engine should still pull the headlights down, but it doesn't. I bypassed the check valve and tried to pull the headlights down from the vacuum hose behind the check valve but no luck.
So my question to you. Is it just that I have leaky vacuum hoses or is there something else that might be leaking? Maybe the canister? Or those saucer things mounted near the actuators?
