Applies to testing vacuum problems and bleeding brakes on all chassis Pre 1960, 190SL, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 108, 109, 107, 116, 123, 126, 201 and 124 chassis. You have asked for it so we decided to deliver. Here is my recommendation for the best vacuum test pump you can buy for the money. Over the years Ive used three different types of vacuum hand pump testers and out of these three this one has proven to be the best all around. It has the best feel of the grip when pumping, the greatest amount of vacuum created at each pump stroke and the highest durability. This unit has a brass body and is very well built. Must better than the Mighty Vac plastic units.
Brass bodied vacuum tester
Comes with instructions, fittings, hoses and fluid container for brake bleeding. We also include 24 inches of Mercedes rubber vacuum line, 2 plug off golf tees, and two short plastic tube adapters that match up to Mercedes vacuum element fittings. This pump will allow you to also bleed brakes on your own and to draw fuel through fuel lines. This pump is an ideal tool to bleed the air out of your SVO system when you initially install a kit in your car or when you have got excessive air in your fuel lines. Hook this onto your fuel lines and this pump will quickly draw fuel either from your vegetable oil tank or your diesel tank very quickly up to the engine.
If you have ever worn yourself out trying to use the little hand pump on the side of your injection pump you will know what I mean. With a few strokes from this quality vacuum pump you will quickly be able to draw fuel through and eliminate air out of your fuel lines.
This is one tool I think every Mercedes diesel owner needs to own. If you are having vacuum shutoff issues, hard break pedal or problems with your door locks not operating properly, then you must have this tool to troubleshoot those problems effectively.
