VCV - 0 in Hg? 1985 300SD
Hello all,
My 85 300SD transmission flares from 2-3 and 3-4 slightly when the transmission is cold. Once everything is warmed up, it seems to shift fine.
I took some vacuum measurements yesterday and have attached an image. (Hopefully you can read the measurements in red)
The system shows 20 in-Hg @ idle when I tap into the white line and plug the other end. 15 in-Hg inline measurement.
It seems as if the VCV shows 0 in-Hg the entire time with no metering as I drive it around.
The transmission line does show a change from 6in-Hg to 1in-Hg as I depress the pedal to full throttle.
Does this mean the VCV valve is bad?
Should I test the vacuum modulated on the transmission next? Or just adjust the setting?
I am confused at what the purpose of valve #125 is in the attachment.
Sorry for any confusion. I am attempting to follow some of the basic diagonistics to see if I can get rid of this 2-3 flare.
Fluid (including TC) and filter was changed 5k miles ago.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
