Keeping your throttle linkage ball sockets and pivot points lubricated extends the life of the parts and maintains top performance for the engine as well as some of the later transmissions.
In this 13-minute instructional video, Kent will walk you through the steps of inspecting and replacing the round throttle shaft bushing in your W123 turbo 300D, 300CD, or 300TD. Watch the YouTube video below for an introduction.
CONFIRMATION ALSO FITS ON W123 GASOLINE 230CE FIREWALL MOUNT!
If your transmission is shifting too soon it can really rob your car of power and acceleration. If it is shifting too late it can be very loud and annoying and even affect fuel economy.
Fits 123, 126 and 116 chassis 5 cylinder diesel engines from 1977 to 1985. This valve cover is in good condition with no cracks or heavy corrosion.
Also works on 380SL and 560SL transmissions. Before you think you can easily remove the Bowden cable from the transmission, watch the video below.
The bowden cable runs from the transmission to the throttle linkage on many Mercedes from the early 1980's up through the early mid 1990's. When this cable fails or is out of adjustment the transmission will either shift too early or too late.
Inspect for adjustment and tension. If you disconnect the cable from the throttle linkage and there is no spring back pressure then the cable is broken.
New o-ring seal installed.
If you own and maintain an older car (especially 15 years and older) you must be willing to take care of its lubrication needs or you may spend big money later in repairs.
