Help please I’ma newbie, I caw threads of people swapping m272 engines so I tried swapped my 2007 c230 2.5L to a c350 3.5L but the big problem is the vacuum pump or where it located like my mechanic told me, now I’m stuck please if you know anything thing I can do please lmk, this hurt my pocket so much just to not be able to finish the project.

Most 3.5l don’t have vacuum pumps, you just need to reroute the tube to the intake manifold. There is a spot to put in the tube, it’s covered by a rubber plug

thank you so so much, I’ve being stressing about this, do you know the best and easy way to carry when trying to reroute the tube?

This is where the tube connects, you can use a heat gun to reshape the hose.
