Removing Crankshaft Vibration Damper 1980 300D
I need to replace the gasket behind the water-pump housing on my 1980 300D. According to the service manual I first need to
1) remove radiator and fan
2) remove all v-belts
3) remove pulley
4) remove vibration damper
It looks like the bolts holding the pulley on are all that is holding the vibration damper on. Is that correct?
perhaps I should go a little further and swap out the front seal while I'm in there?
thanks!!

1982 300CD Wheel Change
I like the look of the wheels with hubcaps on the older 240d's and 300d's. I have a nice painted set of hubcaps, but can't find a set of wheels. I would like to stick with the same 6" tire. Any Suggestions? Thanks - John

1985 300CD Low Compression #2 What Now????
Hi - When changing Injectors, I found low compression in the #2 Cylinders (160). All the others were ok (360 - 380). Is there anything I should do now, to prevent immediate complete failure? What should I expect in the near and far future, besides increasing loss of power? Thanks - John

1985 300TD - How to Repair Damaged Vacuum Hard Line?
I had a short which burnt through a vacuum hard line under the dash. After that the car wouldn't turn off. I cut out the small burnt section and reconnected the lines with a short piece of 1/8" rubber tubing. The fit seemed pretty snug but still the car only turns off after a few seconds. How can I make a good repair to the hard line? Should I be gluing the rubber tubing onto the line? The hard line is behind the steering column and very hard to access, so the simpler the better.

delayed tranny shifting fro 2-3 on 123 1981 300D
I recently purchased 1981 mercedes 300D. I am having trouble with tranny shifting from 2nd-3rd gear. It seems to have a significant delay. The rest of the other gears shift as they should. I would appreciate help with this problem. My other 123 TD 1984 has the same trouble with the same gears except the delay is about half of the 300D.

84 300D to 83 300D
I'm doing an engine swap from a 84 300D Calif. to a 83 300D Calif.
It appears that the 84 has the tach sensor on the injector pump where the 83 has it on the TDC transmitter. Will the tach work properly when I change the engine?
