Hello Brian,

Reporting back. I confirmed that there was no orifice in the tee to the VCV / modulator, so I waited to make adjustments to VCV until I got the orifices from the MB dealership. I put the smallest orifice in, but the vacuum was still in the 12.5 - 13.0"Hg range at idle. The adjustment on my VCV is not a screw / locknut, but just a 9mm nut. Adjusted vacuum to 8.1" Hg at idle. 1-2 shift is firm, flaring at 2-3 is gone, 3-4 smooth. Lookin good! Thanks. Now, on to the oil cooler hoses!
