84 300SD rough idle
Engine idles with a miss that goes away at 1000 rpm. Pulls good from 1000rpm
Have replaced injectors, timing chain looks good. Pulling the fuel line from each injecter causes a diffinent miss. Fuel filters new. Ran good till 1 injecter frooze.
Found problem. I replced the rack adjustment bolt, reset according to the instructions you include with new bolt and vola, smoooth idle. Thanks again.

'83 300SD HEATER WONT SHUT OFF
My car is full of hot air! Even when everything is shut off, the heat still comes through the vents. If I turn on the ac, it only blows warm. Oh, and of course this only happens on hot days. What is it and how do I fix this ?!!! Thanks.

Dear Kent,
My MB 300SD 1982 Rear Driver side door stuck - I cannot open it. Al other doors open fine. A pull-up lever doesn't move either. Is there any special trick i can fix it myself?
With Blessings,

Hot Wire H/AC Blower motor? 86 300SDL Turbo
Well I HAD my blower working.
Don't know why but it up and quit after a couple of days.
I ran 12v to the motor and it works.
I suspect that the Resistor is bad(just a hunch any one know how to check it?)
Would I do damage to anything if I were to bypass the resistor and run wires from the plug (leading into the resistor) to the fan motor?
Or should I put in a toggle switch and run a lead from a hot source?
I realize that it would be on "full" mode when on.
The $400.00 on a resister would be better spent on more important things right now.

front crank seal replacement 83 300SD
n/a I just replaced the front seal using Kents great front seal kit,the instructions were great and everything worked fine. The only thing that I did different, was to unhook the oil cooler from the radiator and snap tie it out of the way, instead of unhooking the oil lines. I do not like to unhook lines if I don't have too.
