Yep, found this out the hard way.  My fix was probably completely different
than what anybody else would do but then again I have a lot of spare parts to
play with...

I used the drivers door actuator from my 1992 80q parts car which is the same
basic design as the 4kq switch except that it has a vacuum nipple on the
bottom.

I had to bend the 90 rod to work in my 4kq door, but after I did that and ran
the vacuum line into the rest of the system.. VOILA, my circuit now works as
intended :-)

non-factory goodies)
