K Aluminum Support O-Ring Replacement. Remove three rivets from the drum holding the support to the drum.. Drill the holes in the aluminum to /6".. Counter sink the area on the inside of the support where the head of the bolt meets the support. The head of the bolt needs to be recessed in the support so that the bolt doesn't interfere with the piston travel.. Tap the three holes in the drum with a 0- machine tap and clean all parts thoroughly. 5. Place the new O-Ring in the support groove using assembly lube to hold the O-Ring in place. 6. Install support into drum, install the three bolts being sure to pull down the support evenly, torque bolts to 6 inch pounds. 7. Turn the drum over and remove excess part of the bolt that is sticking out. K Aluminum Support O-Ring Replacement. Do steps and from above.. The K drum support is a different design than the K. You need to use a /" counter sink drill bit so the support has the same counter as the bolts. The head of the bolts will not interfere with piston operation.. Grind off the edge of the bolt heads so that they clear the support and fit down in the pockets.. Do steps -7 from above. 7

Lower Valve Body Update There are three versions of the K shift valve body. We have illustrated these in the illustration below. Line-up "A" is the second and most common version. The "C" is the first version. The "B" line-up was first found in the 7. and became the third in the late model 7.. "E" shift control pressure valves can be found to be installed valve first (early) or spring than valve (late). Be sure to check valve type and line-up.. Shift control Pressure Valve. K Accumulator.

B Detent Valve If water should mix with the transmission fluid. Then this complete valve line-up must be replaced. This line-up is comprised of all plastic parts. NOTE: This condition causes a complaint of no passing gear (kick-down) poor transmission performance and no kick-down to first gear. REMEMBER this transmission has normal second gear starts. Mercedes 7. 986-Up TV Plunger Assembly The TV valve line-up is different in the Mercedes models 0 SEL, 560 SEL and SL models. This change was made in the 986 model year. Figure illustrates the valve line-up.
