replaced brushes on the blower motor, bench tested worked fine. Installed in car, checked fuse ok, but no blower running. checked voltage at the connection no voltage. My question is were to go next. Also when in the air conditioning mode compressor is running. PLEASE HELP.
Hello Kent,
First,I want to say thanks to Mercedes source for the ability to learn everything about these great cars and giving me the know-how to do all my own work. Truly priceless.
I have a 1983 300d with 155k miles on the engine. I have a rough idle issue and no power on take off. slow as a old dog. I have replaced all diesel filters. in tank screen also. I replaced motor mounts and shocks. performed diesel purge, got lil better, but still same issue. Performed valve adjustment, checked cam lobes, ok. performed cold compression test, found 410 to 405 on 1,2,3,4 and 5 cylinders. replaced glow plugs and relay.checked turbo alda, correct and functioning. checked for blockage, found clean and clear. I really dont know what else can be causing this issue. HELP!
I am researching an alternative to the diesel injector hard lines that provide the fuel to the injectors.
I am interested in the nut size and I am looking at flexible hydraulic lines and racing fuel lines.
Does anyone have experience testing alternative fuel lines?
Two quick questions. I am about to adjust the valves (5cyl 617) to do a compression test on an engine that has not been turned in a couple of years. I just took the valve cover off and everything looks as it should. No sign of corrosion anywhere, oil still present on surfaces.
Should I put oil down the cylinders prior to turning for valve adjustment?
How much in each cylinder?
Thanks
1977 300 d 123 chassie Would like some instructions on troubleshooting the heater and air cond. system. The blower comes on only for the defroster.Is there a recommended change over for the 1977 air cond. unit to be able to purchase the freon. I am not good using facebook but I am trying.
Thanks, Karl Stier
