W126, BENZ AID - COMMON QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Since I upgraded my glow plug relay to the type of relay that leaves the glow plugs on for a few minutes after start up, the alternator belts have been squeeling until the relay shuts off. I would like to put in a solonoid on the power supply to the relay with a momentary on button on the dash... But, in addition to that, I simply need to tighten the Alternator belts. It seems an easy thing to do on a car like this, which is so comfy to work on, but I can't seem to get the job done. It seems there should be a bolt, or a nut, to loosen behind somewhere, then turn the long, skinny hex shaped thing, and then tighten up the whatever. I can't find the bolt or nut, or whatever!

I recently purchased a 79 300TD wagon. I have discovered many hidden problems with the car since I purchased the vehicle. The main one is the discovery of a 3" hole behind the battery and tray. It was hidden by a poor fiberglass patch job and the battery.This has been leaking into the car and sitting on the rear passenger floor boards. The floorboards are also rotting and hidden by rubber undercoat. Anyhow, when I bought the car I knew it needed a new heater servo and amplifier.
