Russell's Review of the Nitrile Mechanics Gloves : These gloves are fantastic! I use LOTS of these working on any car repair or project. If you are sick and tired of getting black oil, grease, dirt or any other yuck on your hands, then these are a must have in your tool box. I have used Nitrile gloves for years. Superior to Latex gloves especially if you are alergic to latex. Powder free, thick enough not to tear and thin enough to handle even the smallest nut or bolt you may want to hold. I use them everyday and my hands thank me! One size fits all. The Nitrile Mechanics Gloves includes:

Transmission Vacuum Valve Lever kit
Price: $18.99 S&H: $1.00
|
Product Description:
Replace those vacuum valve levers to help restore smooth shifting in your turbo diesel. These are high quality OEM type parts that fit perfect. Most owners don't even know the levers exist, hence never replace them. Since they are plastic, they will wear out over time. They are located on the top of the valve cover, under the black plastic box with vacuum lines running to it. The levers are sold as a pair. This kit can be used on all diesel engines in the following chassis models 123, 126 through 1984 that use the vacuum levers.
Russell's Review of the Transmission Vacuum Valve Levers :
This is a very simple do-it-yourself project. Every 84 and older Turbo Diesel I have seen, has had worn levers in them. I have replaced so many for my cars and others, that I decided to do a pictorial on how to replace them on the Mercedes diesel maintenance tips page.
The Transmission Vacuum Valve Lever Kit includes:

Russell's Review of the 3/2 Vacuum Switch :
This is a very simple do-it-yourself project. Every 84 and older Turbo Diesel I have seen, has had worn levers in them. If the mounting ears are cracked or broken, you will have to replace the entire switch. Most cars have 2 switches piggy backed on the valve cover.

Product Description:
Does your transmission modulator work? Is leaking? Do you have hard shifts? My custom kit lets you hook up YOUR vacuum gauge to the modulator while you drive, so you can see what its doing This part can be used on all chassis models with a vacuum operated modulator valve. Please give year, make model and VIN # when ordering so we get you the proper kit.
Russell's Review of the Transmission Test Hose : If you suspect that your modulator is not working correctly, then use my test hose and tee to see once and for all. Just hook up your vacuum gauge to one end and the other end to the transmission modulator and its vacuum supply hose. Drive the car with the vacuum gauge inside with you and you will see what kind of signal it is getting at each shift point. Also is a great tool to use when adjusting the modulator for a precise shift. The Transmission Test Hose Kit includes:

Product Description:
A poor shifting transmission can result from a defective and leaking transmission modulator valve. Depending on model your valve may be black, green or red. This part can be used on chassis models 116, 123, 124, 126, 129, 140, 202, 210 models. Please give year, make model and VIN # when ordering so we get you the proper kit. If you have the RED transmission modulator valve on your car then it is a totally different animal and you can order that below. Most 116 body cars, early 123 and 240d cars will have the red modulator valve. Russell's Review of the Modulator Valve Kit: If you experience rough or erratic shifts, or hear a "clunk" when coming to a stop, your modulator valve may be bad. They can leak vacuum or just not function properly. They don't last forever, so when in doubt, replace it. The Modulator Valve Kit includes:

Russell's Review of the Transmission Filter Kit : This is an item that is really overlooked. Transmission fluid should be changed ever 24k miles max. I do mine every 12k miles and is cheap insurance on a transmission failure. Fluid overheating and turning to varnish, is a huge problem on automatics. Keep the transmission filter and fluid changed often to prevent future expensive problems. The kit includes a filter and pan gasket and other gaskets as related to your model.

Russell's Review of the Transmission Cooler Hose : Rubber and hot tranny fluid are not the best of friends. Over time the rubber transmission cooler hoses that go from the radiator to the steel lines will leak and crack. Easy to install and spring wrapped, these cooler hoses will last for many years to come. Stop dripping tranny fluid all over your driveway. The Transmission Cooler Hose includes:

Product Description:
If your tranny is not kicking down into low gear with the accelerator switch, then the solenoid is probably bad. This part can be used on all 123, 124, 126, 140, 201, 210 models only . Please give year, make model and VIN # when ordering so we get you the proper kit.
Russell's Review of the Kickdown Solenoid: The solenoid electrically engages 1st gear when the switch is depressed under the accelerator pedal. To test it come to a complete stop and mash the accelerator pedal to the floor. If the car does not drop down into first, then the solenoid or the switch or both are bad.
The Kickdown Solenoid includes:
