116, Vacuum

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

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:
