Greetings all. I've been quietly reading all the vacuum related threads and running searches, etc. Replaced the vacuum shut off switch on my '84 300D turbo last night, plugged leads to both yellow lock lines (next project) and ta dah, I've got a brand new car! Incredible. No more sledgehammer to the floorboards every time the trans drops back into first when slowing down. Just a seamless shift.

I know everyone gets tired of the vacuum questions from new to Benz guys like me but your time isn't wasted!

Thanks!
