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 is my favorite set of tweezers for helping to hold small parts in place for assembly. The wide ones are particularly helpful when a second hand is needed to hold a small bolt or screw in place. Comes with seven different tweezers as shown. Good for car work. Not good for pulling hair!
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.
For all 123 chassis cars with vacuum door locks from 1977 to 1985. Now you can finally fix those pesky vacuum door locks yourself! Failure is almost always caused by vacuum leaks in the system. This 28 page manual with 55 photographs will take you step by step through the process of quickly finding and repairing those leaks. Starting at the firewall and working all the way to the trunk/deck of your car, I will show you how to isolate the problems even without having to take the door panels off.
To aid in trouble shooting you will need to acquire an inexpensive vacuum hand pump. Normal hand tools are the only other things you will need. For 1977 to 1980 cars I even have vacuum actuator repair kits available so you can replace any cracked diaphragms you may find.
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?
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
