Just acquired some primo and hard to find W123 turbo diesel parts. CLICK HERE to view all.
i am running my 300sdl on WVO with a Mercedessource dual tank system.
Has anyone had any experience good or bad with the following products:
Water Wetter-meant to cool operating temps by improving fluid dynamics of antifreeze/coolant mixture.
and
BG 44K-engine/fuel additive to be used in conjunction with diesel purge.
thanks.
Has anyone developed a way to predict that your FM100 (or other WVO filter) is getting clogged? i have found that i don't have much warning when it is starting to affect the performance of my car. If i didn't have the option of switching to my second tank (diesel fuel) it might really get in trouble some time on a longer trip.
Is there a way to do it with a pressure gauge prior to the filter.....?
Interested in you comments.

I've taken the door check apart... the strap rides in a groove, with
spring-loaded ball-bearings... I've cleaned & lubed it, but now can't
figure out how to compress the balls back into the strap, and put it
back into the body of the unit (the spring is *strong*, and the balls
are slippery!
Cheers.

Just, by hand, tried to run it up to blow a little carbon out. Everything was fine , blew alittle out, she's purring like a kitten, but now it wo'nt shut off.
Thanks for the help,
Tim
Would it be possible for the compressor not to even kick on if the AC Relay is not working properly?
I just changed both fuel filters and the oil on my 350SD and on my test drive the car made a strange noise or vibration at 1800 rpm. It almost seems like a cavitation. Motor mounts are good....I did a diesel purge 3000 miles ago....and it's normal and smooth at all other speeds. It has a newer non-rod bending 603. New nozzles needed??
i am having odd start up/running syptoms. car starts and runs perfect when cold. after warm up, requires 2-3 starting attempts. intermittently will not take fuel after warm start (especially if i continue cranking on first attempt until firing - usually no more than 10 seconds). fuel filters have been changed, diesel purge performed (actually looked pretty clean). car has 241,000 miles and looks to have been pretty well maintained. timing chain is tight.
