This the exact puller you will receive. Handy for small jobs.
When pressure testing your KE-jetronic fuel injection, you may find you need a really thin wrench to install the small fitting on the right side bottom of the fuel distributor.
In this 20-minute instructional video, Kent will show you the steps on how you can replace the "hidden bushing" in the rear control arm by yourself without having to take the control arm off the car.
Kent was a little skeptical when you first used this—it sounded like it would be too good to be true. The first use was getting some rusty bolts off the Garrett T3 turbine housing ( some of you know the pain there!). Well, it worked, and it worked very well.
Fits all V6 engines from 1998 to 2005. Kent feels these are the best. Outstanding quality.
The hardest part of the job is the things mentioned above in the subtitle. In this 16+-minute video, Kent will go to some length to explain both on the bench and on the car how to deal with getting the belt off and back on.
ONLY ONE SET AVAILABLE. Three of these wrenches are made by Gearwrench. You get a very long standard combination 13mm wrench, a long 10mm with a racheting box, a very long 17mm with a ratcheting box, and finally, a very long 14mm combination wrench made by Urrea.
This is a short addendum to the full instructions on resealing an SLS hydraulic pump. This will now be included with the reseal kit. Disregard the old method mentioned elsewhere
FULL SET of correct Bosch spark plugs. These are considerably longer than the stock M113 spark plugs and should only be used in the AMG engines specified above. 16 spark plugs only. No other supplies or instructions are included.
Excellent used delivery valve(not scored) and housing nut that mounts on the top of the injection pump. Includes threaded housing, spring, valve body, and valve. A bad delivery valve or valves can cause rough idle, smoke, poor power etc.
We modify this wrench right here in our shop. If a picture is worth a thousand words, what is a video work. Watch the following for a full explanation.
This universal 13/16-inch spark plug socket comes with 14-inch and 3-inch extensions. On some V8s, you have very limited room to get to the rear sparkplugs. You can use the short extension. You can use the long extension for quicker access to the ratchet wrench out in the open.
In this video Kent will show you how to remove the center wood panel and the climate control switch panel so you can replace the 5 small bulbs behind it that light up the switch panel and the buttons behind it. It is not as difficult as it may first appear if you understand the procedure.
GREAT for glue on loose rubber, loose wood pieces, and even carpet. The best!
Just so you know, this video class is included free with the purchase of one of our steering lock repair services or a new or rebuilt steering lock assembly. Please see the related products below.
In this 7+ minute instructional video, you will learn how to cleanly and safely drain the fuel out of your old Benz.
This is a hard-to-find adapter that will need if you have one of the early 1990s 5 and 6 cylinder turbo diesel engines. We machine this right here in our shop and it is designed to work directly with our OM61x compression tester ( see related products below):
This is a perfect fit for the O.E. copper sealing ring. You only need one but we sell these as a set of two so you will have a spare.
This is where this sealing ring is located. On top of the fuel injection lift pump and at the base of the hand primer pump:
Very high-quality steel. Original Napa branded.
This video will cover the use of my custom plastic tool to safely remove the steel center section for the outside aluminum housing with rebuilding your older style SLS ( Self Leveling Suspension) hydraulic pump. No other instructions included here.
These are the 4 long bolts that need to be removed when changing your W126 brake rod control joint on your front suspension. There are two on each side. They do not come in the repair kit so if you bolts are very rusty you might want to have these new bolts on hand before you start your repair.
Kent finally went to work to solve the problem of rusty water pump mounting bolts. Once the problem was studied carefully the solution became obvious. Watch the video for a full explanation and partial instructions below.
Kit contents:
I do not need to say much about this tool. Well made and well thought out. Someone who obviously was frustrated at scratching the finish on his or her alloy wheels came up with this idea. Watch the video below to see why this is now my favorite go it 17 mm lug bolt socket.
This is something many owner's and mechanics miss. That little check valve on the side of the injection pump can cause a lot of starting problems on the older diesels.
Many owners are surprised to learn that their early ML's hood can actually be adjusted to go almost straight up. It is not as easy to do as some of the earlier models where you only had to flip a couple levers.
Connect this small filter with attached hoses to the back of the injection pump and to the brown plastic vacuum line going to your ignition switch under the dash. The filter will do two things. 1. Help to trap oil coming out of a leaking shutoff valve before it gets to your ignition switch. 2.
If you have a 1969 to 1985 4 or 5 cylinder diesel (except the 1984-85 190D) you may have already noticed it is hard to get the valve cover totally sealed from weeping oil stains coming out the bottom or top of the valve cover gasket.
In this video Kent covers the removal and replacement procedures for the sunroof air dam or otherwise known as the air deflector. Using a special technique and a plastic trim tool can prevent damage to the plastic clips. He also covers troubleshooting the reasons for improper operation.

Set of four (4) new factory door striker bolts. It is very easy to round these off. If you are planning on removing or adjusting your strikers and want the original style hex bolts you should have extras on hand.
Kent uses his 1976 240D that had sat idle for 6 years to demonstrate what needs to be done to get an old fuel system cleaned out and serviced properly. This always includes installing new fuel filters and sometimes will require replacing some of the rubber hoses.
Fits all models 1976 to 1985 with a wood shift cover. 240D 300D 300CD 300TD 230E 280E and 280TE. A very common issue that plagues almost all W123s. The factory pin in the back on the wood shift cover seems to always break off, leaving the wood piece loose in the center console.
Removing the front rubber engine mounts requires getting under the car and going up inside a hole in the subframe to remove the main bolt. And it can be a bear! I don't know who they hired to tighten these at the factory, but he must have been a brute.
PLEASE NOTE In stock now and ready to ship. No detailed instructions at this time, but it is not a difficult install this unit once you remove the false firewall at the back of the engine. You will be able to gain access to the monovalve and electric pump assembly.

In this long video manual Kent will walk you step-by-step through the process of removing the older square style leveling valve from your Mercedes, opening it up without losing the spring and balls, removing the old o-rings and cleaning the parts properly, installing the new o-rings, and putting
If you are going to work on your diesel fuel injectors, you are going to need a torque wrench. If you are going to tighten your alloy wheel lug bolts properly, you should use a torque wrench. In fact, if you do your own work, you should have a 1/2-inch clicker torque wrench in your toolbox.
Why would you need to remove a fuel tank? If it is heavily rusted or contaminated sometimes it is just easier to find a good used fuel tank and replace it. Trying to clean a heavily gummed up fuel tank is a real challenge.
Fits all 380SL and 380SLC from 1981 to 1985. This flexible fuel hose connects the outlet of the fuel filter to the metal hard fuel line going from the rear of the 380SL to the engine compartment. This hose is hard to install and hard to inspect.
