Testing fuel pressure is a simple procedure on the D-Jetronic engines, but it is absolutely essential.
When you install a new door striker, you will have to adjust it so the door closes and fits properly. This can be time-consuming, as it involves a fair amount of trial and error.
Kent will demonstrate in this 11-minute video how to repair small rust holes in the trunk wells on older Mercedes W116, W123, W126, W124 and W201 chassis. This technique can also be used anywhere you find small non-structural rust holes forming.
Rusty, pitted metal can be pretty ugly, even if you paint over it. If you try to fill it with regular Bondo, that will not work long-term.
These are the forward trailing arm bushings that connect the arms to the rear subframe. When these bushing get old or start to crack and break apart, you may hear noises in the back and the rear end may want to steer the car on its own.

This is actually 2 sets of bumpers that will allow you to make one really good set. I have been working to get a nice pair for the past 20 years to go on that perfect 6.9 but time is running out. On to the next enthusiast.
6 "German style" non-cutting hose clamps as shown. These are wider than most to better seal the hose to the fitting. See our other hose clamp assortments below.
In this collection you will receive the CIS pressure testing short kit and all 6 of Kent's videos on Bosch CIS fuel injection theory, tester connections and testing. Click on each link below to read about the specifics of each. This combo kit overs a great savings.
If you plan to replace, test, or service your electronic fuel injectors you first must determine which bottom seals you will need. If you have a 1970 or 1973 model, you most likely have the single-bottom seal (unless your engine has been changed).
In this 24-minute instructional video, Kent shows you more than just how to change the transmission filter and the pan.
In this 19-minute detail instructions, Kent will show you how to get the old seal out, how to trial fit the new seal, and how to glue it in place properly. You can not believe how many seals we see that have not been installed properly.

These will no longer be printed when these are gone. They will still be available as a download. All books are signed by Kent. This is an end of an era for us. Most books are approximately 15 pages in length and covered with heavy clear plastic.
DO NOT ORDER UNTIL YOU REMOVE ONE INJECTOR IN YOUR ENGINE AND INSPECT THE HOLE. Sometime in 1974, Mercedes changed the way these injectors were sealed into the head to prevent air leaks. A "YELLOWISH" nylon sleeve was added along with two seals on the lower end of the fuel injector.
You can not believe how easy it is to move and adjust your old seat after lubrication the tracks with this amazing lubricant! You will receive two full tubes plus the extension nozzle. This is more than enough lube to do the seats with four tracks on each side.

I am throwing in the wires for free, so please, no complaints. They work and are not all the same color, but you could use them if you ever need to replace one wire. The two wire holders for the valve covers are also included from free.
In this 9-minute instructional video, Kent explains how to set up his injection pump cleaning and testing kit ( available separately ), and use it to clean out old fuel injection pumps of gum and grime, and then how to test them to make sure they are delivery fuel through every line.
This is the best way to determine if the expensive injection pump is going to work for old 4 AND 5-cylinder diesel engines that have not run in years. Watch the video below to understand what this kit can do.
In this 20-minute instruction video, Kent will show you how to take his short kit and combine it with a tester that you can purchase online to make a leak-free, reliable, and accurate fuel pressure tester for Bosch CIS fuel injection.
It has been over 30 years since the last Mercedes with Bosch C.I.S. fuel injection was manufactured. If you own a 1976 to 1993 Mercedes gas engine with this type of fuel injection, you may have difficulty finding someone to work on your car. In some parts of the country, it may be impossible.
