Unhappy help

I need help. Can someone post a picture with the vacuum hoses correctly routed. The side where the IP is at is ther pics I need. The two vacuum hoses tha goes to the top of my valve cover goes nowhere. It is just hanging there connected to nothing. Thanks in advance for the help.
My baby is sick after I adjusted the Alda and had too much fun trying her out. Now she slips in third and flares even when shifting to second. I returned the alda to the factory setting and got rid of some of the slippage but some is still there. I know I !@$@#$ up but I don't want her getting any worse.

Vacuum Hose Hook Ups For 82 300td Engine Only

... might help. Is the vacuum diagram decal by the right headlight is illegible?

I didn't even look for decals. I'll check later afterwork, thanks Sixto. Is Patrick good with MB tranny's?

tranny shop

Wagon boy, if you need a tranny shop,
go to Peter Schmidt Transmissions.
I believe in Sunnyvale, close to you.
Talk to Ian.
They specialize on Mercedes Transmissions only.
They are the best.(shops in bay area farm out to him)

Ian used to post on this site.

good luck, neighbor!

That's really interesting. I adjusted my ALDA also after installing a boost controller and now also get some slipping either going into third or forth (I'm not sure). Maybe everything is just coincidental, but if it's not, could someone explain why changing the fuel enrichment and/or raising the boost would affect the transmission? Is it a vacuum thing? Thanks

Alex

I think it has something to do with the old disks not being able to hold the new found torque. I suggest you return it to the stock settings. Good luck.
Thanks for the help Unkl. I'll check him out.
