I could not get my '81 300SD over 30mph at full throttle when mine went bad. New one was maybe $25. Pictured below at center right. It looks like a metal cube with a nipple on the top. Attached to the firewall on my SD.
The valve in that position on my car is round. I will check it, thanks for the tip.
