VAcuum reservoir. Likely either moved or in a place where it normally isn't. Yours may be next to the batter.

Well that can't be good. You are sure there isn't one next to your battery?

It might not be green, check to see if you have something that is similar to that.

I think those were only there (and green) on the very early 944s ('83 and '84). I've seen them on a couple of those. I know for a fact my '85/1 does not have one there. IIRC it's in the battery compartment, but I'll check (been a while since I've been in that area). Perhaps some people with other early 944s can confirm this.
