where is vaccum pump for 300sl and how do you check it
I think its a Mercedes 300sl gullwing
The soft top of the 300SL ( W129) is operated by a control unit, not by relays. If you want a can tray find a localization picture of the control unit for the soft top
The 129R with the 6 cylinder engine - the 300SL - has a timing chain. Please note also that Mercedes Benz makes a modified tensioner(s) to correct a problem with the chain rubbing on the cover.
Normal operating Temp is about 87C
The most recognized- is the 1955 Mercedes-Benz 300sl "Gullwing"

The 1954 Mercedes Benz 300SL Gullwing is considered by many as the worlds first supercar.

The fastest car production in 1950-1959 was the Jaguar D type at 172.8mph. Second is the Mercedes Benz 300sl at 161mph.
If the fluid level is OK and does not smell burned and the shift lever works the transmission may need to looked at by a repair place.
