Is it possible that you did not get the valve plunger properly engaged with the shift mechanism? If it was slightly out of position, it would be possible for it to push but not pull, or vice versa.

My experience is limited to a '82 300D. Yours might be different, but on mine it was quite obvious how the parts shoud mate. There was a sort of "receptacle" on the rear of the plunger that snapped over an inverted "T" on the shift mechanism.
I am checking on ordering the part now. I have some pics I took of the valve body. The system won't let me add them for some reason. So if you're interested pass an e-mail address and I'll send them to you. Thanks for the help.
