[V8] Trunk will not open

[Jeremy Ward]

Yup.  However if you have a problem like I had (orange accordion "hat"/seal
had a hole in it and the air leaked out) this may not help.  Another symptom
if you have this problem is that the vacuum pump runs and runs trying to
lock the car...  It eventually gives up.

Fortunately Derekuda hooked me up with one from a parts car :-)

Close, you actually have to do the opposite, hit hose at the pump with
some positive air pressure and the lock will pop open.
