I used the sucker in the e300d with no trouble. Also suck it out of
the manual trans in Gump. Do remove and replace the filter on AT if
you are going to drain the TC. I did not bother when just changing out
the fluid without filter.

I used an old washing machine hose over the dip stick tube to remove
the
excess fluid, good fit. It worked very good because the tube goes
down to
the pan. I don't think you will drain the converter this way though.
In
addition you should change the filter. I was a little worried that the
vacumn might disturb some small parts in the tranny.

I used the $2 sucker to get the fluid out of my old Blazer (700R4) as
the fill tube has a straight shot to the bottom of the pan. Cleaned
out
all but a little bit. I don't think you can do that with the 123
tranny, I vaguely recall trying and I don't think the suck hose will
go
down very far.

Car is a 1979 240D automatic, 123 chassis. Want to see if any one
has
used
a topsider to suck out old tranny fluid. Do I still need to rotate
engine
and remove drain plug?
This job will include changing out filter unit as well. Any stories
or
hints you could share please?
