Question about testing for engine blow-by
MY HUSBAND AND I BOUGHT SEVERAL OF YOUR BOOKLETS. WE USED YOUR BOOKLET TITLED "Diesel Performance Tuning and Repair" RECENTLY TO TEST A 79 240D AND IT FAILED VIRTUALLY ALL OF YOUR TESTS LISTED UNDER "Quick Inspection Checklist." THANKS VERY MUCH YOU SAVED US LOTS OF MONEY BY HELPING US JUDGE THE WORTHINESS OF THIS POTENTIAL PURCHASE. ANYHOW, MY HUSBAND DID THE TEST WHERE YOU UNSCREW THE CAP ON THE VALVE COVER AND SEE IF IT DANCES AROUND, OR IF SMOKE BLOWS BY, ON OUR GAS CAR. I'M WONDERING IF IT'S A GOOD TEST FOR GAS CARS AS WELL AS DIESELS? THANKS, B

Where the hood hinge goes through the body.....
of my 300TD, the hole has been elongated to the point that the clip pops off the hinge arm when I open the hood. Right now, I have the hinge arm through the hole with a big washer and then the clip. The washer keeps things in place enough to keep the clip on and it works. Certainly not a long term fix.
Has anyone dreamed up a solid fix for this one? I thought about JB Welding the washer into place, and then I thought again....Any suggestions, sarcastic or otherwise, are welcome. Thanks!

Clutch help needed
UPDATE2: Continuing to reverse bleed the system. No luck. What should the brake pedal feel like when I'm bleeding the clutch system. Should it go to the floor everytime (like it does) or should it pump up tight? Any help would be appreciated!!

Hot Hot Heat
I'm hoping for some opinions on my 1983 300D-T's auto climate control "issues". It blows hot only, irrespective of temp setting, and the center vents often blow somewhat weakly. Fan speed can be adjusted hi/lo, but auto setting is erratic. The A/C is offline - has been since I purchased the car (my second 123) a short time ago. I do want to get the auto fan functioning again though, to at least not to blow only hot air since summer's coming up... I don't think the A/C repairs are in the cards for now, unfortunately...

Fixed troublesome 80-81 auto trans for good!
I would like to thank Kent and Kaia for all their help and tech info over the last few years.With the help of their manuals and parts I have been able to fix oils leaks and all of my vacuum leaks trying to get my trany to shift properly.I was told by Kent that an old style trans would work in my car but to make sure to take ALL the linkages from the donar car. Well 2 weekends later and I am back on the road with only a few adjustments on the linkage left to do.

Dash lights not working
Hi I have a 82 240d and the lights on the dash board wont work. When I turn on the switch, the light will come on that lights up the transmission but the dash stays dark. Because none of the lights come on in the dash, I assume that a circut is broken, and I was wondering how I would troubleshoot it. Also I would like to know how to replace the lights just in case it turns out that they all burnt out. Thanks.
