When was the last time you knocked one of your vacuum lines off around the oil filter housing, only to discover when you tried to reattached it that the fittings were swollen and would just not stay connected? This is a L shaped fitting that fits 115, 116, 123, and 126 chassis.
When was the last time you knocked one of your vacuum lines off around the oil filter housing, only to discover when you tried to reattached it that the fittings or hose were swollen and would just not stay connected? Here is some extra vacuum hose to fix your problem. Fits 115, 116, 123, and 126 chassis.
ONE meter cut piece.
Fits the following: All 116 126 126 Chassis Diesels from 1977-1985. This is a brand new Genuine Mercedes Steering lock vacuum valve that is located on the back of your ignition lock assembly. The vacuum lines that control your engine shutoff go from the engine compartment to this valve at the lock assembly. If you are having problems with the car not shutting off this could be the culprit!
This guide is written specifically for owners of 123 and 126 diesels up to 1985. There are some sections that apply to the 115 and 116 chassis but it is not specific to those models. This manual covers understanding how the vacuum system works, common symptoms of trouble, possible causes, and testing and repairing the problems. Deals mostly with issues from the firewall forward like testing the vacuum pump, repairing shutoff problems, finding leaks, etc.
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.
Excellent used working vacuum pump assembly with valuable working check valve included. This unit fits all 123 and 126 chassis 1981-1985 with the 5 cylinder turbo diesel engines. Also fits 1981 to 1983 240D. NOTE: Before purchasing be sure that you current unit looks just like this one. It is not uncommon that you could have an older style diesel engine in your Benz. If you are experiencing hard breaking and other vacuum related problems, it may be time to replace your ailing vacuum pump.

Your diesel not shutting off with the key? - then consider this! FITS THE FOLLOWING: all 123, 116, and 126 chassis from 1977-1985. This includes the 240D, 300D, 300CD, 300TD and 300SD. If your diesel engine is showing signs of shutting off very slowly or maybe not at all, it may be time to replace the vacuum fuel shutoff valve located at the rear of the injection pump. You can check its operation with a hand vacuum pump or you can pull the rubber hose off the back for visual inspection. If there is black oil in the hose its time to change the valve (diaphram has started to leak). This new aftermarket unit comes with new gasket for proper installation. It is a tight squeeze to remove it but not a difficult job for the do it yourselfer.
New Vacuum testing gauge with fittings in hard plastic case. This is a very nice gauge will a 4 inch diameter face that is easy to read from a distance. Use this on your diesel to test for vacuum pump operation and to isolate major problem areas. Use this on your gas engine to check for intake leaks, valve timing problems, ignition timing, and fuel injection problems. Can also test low pressure fuel pumps. Gauge reads to 28 inch Hg Vacuum and 0-10 psig pressure.
PLEASE NOTE: This gauge can only test for a working vacuum source. It cannot test for vacuum leaks in individual vacuum components, such as door lock actuators, fuel shut off valve, climate control actuators, etc. To isolate leaks in individual vacuum components you will need a hand pump tester.
This special vacuum switching valve is found on most Mercedes diesels from 1980 to 1985. 240D, 300D, 300CD, 300TD and 300SD. Some 85 models do not use this type of valve. On most turbo diesel engines there are two of these located under the black plastic cover on the center top of the valve cover. Most of the time you will find the lever arms worn off. Others may be full of vacuum leaks due to heat and age.
These valves control important functions related to the EGR valve and the automatic transmission. If yours look aged or worn I would recommend you replace them

FITS THE FOLLOWING: ALL 123 and 126 chassis 240D, 300D, 300TD, 300CD, and 300SD 1980 to 1985 with later style vacuum pump (only one line coming out of top). In 1980 Mercedes changed the design of their diesel vacuum pumps. Instead of a rubber diaphragm pumping action they designed a piston with a 0-ring seal to replace the diaphragm. This design is inherently more reliable but there seems to be a common weakness in the pumps installed on four and five cylinder diesel built from 1980 to 1985 (excluding the 190D).
To determine which type of pump you have you can check the following: Older style pumps have two large vacuum lines attached to the top of the pump and this newer style only has one.
This is a brand new OE Bosch part that fits all diesels 1977 to 1985 (except 190D). If your diesel engine is starting to shut off very slowly or maybe not at all, it may be time to replace the vacuum fuel shutoff valve located at the rear of the injection pump. You can check its operation with a hand vacuum pump or you can pull the rubber hose off the back for visual inspection. If there is black oil in the hose its time to change the valve (diaphram has started to leak). It is a tight squeeze to remove it but not a difficult job for the do-it-yourselfer. You will be amazed at how nice it is having the engine shut right off again right after turning the key off.
FITS THE FOLLOWING: 115, 116, 123, and 126 chassis. Here is a diesel item I have put together that every Mercedes diesel owner should have. When was the last time you knocked one of your vacuum lines off around the oil fiter housing, only to discover when you tried to reattached it that the fittings were swollen and would just not stay connected? I have tried to include enough variety in fittings and hoses for you to become an expert at repairing the vacuum system.
This set includes the following:
FITS THE FOLLOWING 123, and 126 1980-1985 chassis (300D 300TD, 300CD, 300SD and 240D 1981-1983 and some late 1980s models with 1 vac plastic line coming out of pump). If you vacuum pump has two plastic lines coming off the cover then this kit won't work. This is the overhaul kit you later model diesel owners have been waiting for. As you can see this kit contains all seals, o-rings and internal check valves. If you are experiencing vacuum problems it may be time to rebuild this pump. The vacuum pump is critical to many systems operation including the brakes, door locks (except on 300SD), climate control, transmission shifting and engine shutdown. This is something you may just want to rebuild as a preventative measure. 20 year o-rings and seals are prone to failure.
