Troubleshooting an annoying shift problem must first start with the vacuum modulator. This vacuum control unit mounted on the side of the transmission must be tested and adjusted to specs BEFORE you move on to other adjustments. Unfortunately this can not be done by guess or by feel. There is a pressure port on the side of the transmission that you must tap into and connect to a pressure gauge. The engine must then be started and the modulator adjusted to a set pressure for that specific transmission. It is not a difficult job with the proper test tools and information, and can be done in less than an hour. Too much pressure and abrupt shifts will occur. Too little pressure and you may experience slipping or flaring during shifts. My kit with help you do all the above with ease.

Brand new coolant pipe for early 123 chassis diesels. Located on the water pump housing. Will fit some later models but please email with vin number to confirm fit.

Welcome to the first inexpensive CIS fuel injector tester for the home mechanic. This bench mount tester will allow you to check the release pressure and spray pattern of your injectors. It will not accurately measure quantity of fuel delivered nor the release balance between the injectors as do the big commercial test units. With a little practice you can get a "feel" for balance by quickly testing all injectors one right after another and analyzing spray patterns. CIS injectors are spraying all the time in your engine. There is no way you can get this hand pump to spray continuously, but by pumping rapidly and can get a fairly good idea just how well each injector is atomizing the fuel. 

With this conversion kit you can use your current Mercedessource diesel fuel injector tester to test Bosch gas engine fuel injectors on 450SL, 380SL, 560SL, 280E, 280CE, 280SE/L,450SE/L, 380SE/L, 500SE/L, 380SEC, 420SEL, 560SEL, 560SEC, 300SE/L, 190E 2.3, 190E 2.6, 260E, 300E, 300TE, 300CE, 300SL, and 500SL.

This is the part you will need when your ignition key continues to stick even after installing a new tumbler assembly. In over 70 percent of the cases involving a severely sticking key, I have found you need to replace both the tumbler AND the steering lock if you hope to have a lasting repair. They tend to wear each other out if the problem is not corrected early on. In cases where the key just begins to stick slightly while turning, you can sometimes get by only having to replace the tumbler assembly.

Fits all the following models listed below from 1977 to 1991

We make it easy for you by providing a new assembly that Kent assembles in his shop before shipping. This includes installing a new tumbler assembly and black cover cap. A new ignition switch is included but you will have to use the three screws from your old lock to secure the new electrical switch. A new vacuum cut-off switch is also included and installed.

Brand New Release! This manual writing by Kent Bergsma will walk you step by step through the process of removing and replacing a Mercedes steering lock assembly.

Includes 30 quality red plastic clips, a removal tool and detailed instructions. There are a number of reasons why you would want to remove the center side trim on your older Mercedes. You may just want to clean and detail behind them (it does get pretty dirty back there over the years). If you are repainting your car removing the side trim is a must for a quality job. There could be rust growing out of the holes on the back side of the strips (do not let this go - see my Miracle Rust Cure products). Or you may have one or more loose or damaged side strips. The biggest problem in removing these strips is that the plastic snap clips often come off with the strip hold down pins.

If your shutoff valve is leaking oil or is not shutting off quickly (even with a good valve and proper vacuum applied to it) you may need to remove it for repair. You can adjust its travel with the items included in this kit. Comes with 2 new gaskets, proper gasket sealant and instructions for adjustment. Does not come with instructions on how to remove and replace the valve but that is done is readily done by removing the four bolts that hold the valve to the back of the injection pump.
