I'm struggling with the decision over buying the injector rebuild kit (with monarchs) or simply buying the already rebuilt monarchs and returning my cores. I know some of you have gone down this road and I would appreciate any comments and/or advice you could give.
My worry with doing it myself has to do with leaks. It seems like competent folks who are following the procedures are still getting leaks. Has anyone experienced leak problems with the MB Source rebuild injectors?
Thanks and I'm going to make a decision sometime in the coming 2 weeks.

Hi Everyone,

I just finished fixing one problem only to get myself into another :-). I tried to install some of the new monark nozzles from mercedessource. I tried to be very careful and clean when reassembling the injectors after replacing the nozzles and thoroughly lapped all the mating surfaces with fine sand paper as described in the guide.

One thing I was not able to figure out is how to remove the old crush washers from the engine to replace them with new ones. Because of this I left them there. Any tips on how to remove these would be much appreciated as they seem pretty stuck in there and there were no hints in the manual I received.

Hi,

I have replaced everything steering and suspension wise except the steering box(which does have some play) and had the car fully checked over and aligned. I am getting very server tire wear on the two front tires on the inside. The tires don't even have 5000 miles on them and have already been rotated once. I brought this back to the shop and they said oh these old mercedes just have the camber set which tilts the tire and there is nothing I can really do about it.

recently i was having problems with heat coming on when ac should have,mostly heat.ac works well.changed monovalve from mercedessource though old one was good,no change.got a used solenoid from mercedessource and then i only got cold,minimal heat.unplugged monovalve still cold even in defrost.whats the next step.aux pump??
