1976 300D wont shut off
I have to push the "Stop engine" lever under the hood to shut the engine off. I have owned the car for 10 years without this happening. It has now occurred twice today. Should I be looking for a mechanical malfunction or an electrical connection?
Best Regards,

85 300TD Alternate Hood Release Fix
I Just Broke my Hood release cable. After I open the hood, can I cut the cable about three feet from the hood end, and reroute the shortened hood latch end over the left headlight? There I could make a loop in the end and kinda hide it on top of the light? I think I can remove the outer sheath and just use the wire to unlock the hood. Please comment on the feasability/drawbacks ..... thanks

1979 300SD Turbo Diesel: after-market turbo advisable?
Ken,
Thanks for the products and advice thus-far.
My 1979 Mercedes 300SD Turbo Diesel is running great (knock on wood!), and always gets a thumbs up.
Question for you and anyone in the forum with experience with my model and after-market turbos.
Would an after-market turbo work with my vehicle?
Yes? No? Why/why not? What to look for/stay away from? Other advice?
Cheers from the Bluegrass State,
Christian

injector installation 86 300SDL
Hey Kent when installing injectors back into my 86 300SDL do you recommend a little anti seaze comound on the threads? They came out pretty hard and had a little corrosion on them.
