Let's talk Vacuum

Yep, you guess it!  Our car have many vacuum components to control locks, transmission, heating/cooling control unit and much more.  Let's take this opportunity to discuss the basic mechanism behind this system, identify the main components throughout the car and of course how to identify leaks and repair them.
