Hi All,
my auto 740 GL has a small split in one of the vacuum hoses (from the air intake manifold?)...
it had happened before a few weeks ago and i shortened the hose to remove the split and it was AOK...
however, tonight whilst driving, as i came to a stop the engine stalled. it immediately started with no problems. then as i was driving slowly it happened again... this time as i started to accelerate. it just died. a quick off/on with the key and all was well.... i made it home without fault.

i'm assuming it is the same problem with a split or leaking hose. i can hear a hissing... i'll check in the morning. i hope it is just a question of replacing the hose.

has anyone had this problem before? any words of wisdom or reassurance?

cheers,
Jesper
