rough shifting
my 1980 300D is shifting very rough. i heard about changing something related to the vacum system but im not sure does anyone know what may be the problem? oil is clean. car has been sitting for a few years.

101 things it can be. Troubleshoot the vacuum system and then go from there.

the finger on the white valve on top of the valve cover is worn out is this the cause of bad shifting? i am very confused of this topic because of other listings. and does my 300D have a green dashpot vavle ? i cant find it.

Depends. Some models use it for EGR, trans, or both.
It can cause shifting problems even if its for the EGR. The vavle(s) can leak and cause a loss of vacuum to the transmission. you should check it for leaks. |
