Just acquired some primo and hard to find W123 turbo diesel parts. CLICK HERE to view all.
Kent, my 300d (1983) only blows hot air no matter what setting I have it on. I replaced the monovalve...but no change. Any idea where to start? I have searched the internet forums before coming to you, but this does not seem to be a common problem.

i am looking to purchase a 1984 300 td wagon that supposedly needs a new transmission...the owner says a month ago it was rocking, great acceleration and power, no signs of wear...then one day, going up hill, the transmission in an instant started having issues..she discovered the transmission fluid was almost all gone...she then added 4 quarts and overfilled it, drove on it for a couple of weeks and had all sorts of transmission issues...brought it to a mechanic who cleaned the fluid and adjusted the transmission and 3 weeks oast with it working ok...
The turn signals on my 83 300TD blink fast. I've replaced several bulbs including bulbs in the cluster. The signals still blink fast... Is there a way to trouble shoot this? Thanks for any advice!
HI, Ive got a 1986 300sdl that I have fixed some vaccum lines on and changed transmission fluid in. Transmission shifts perfectly in all gears when cold but after driving awhile it gets stuck in either 2nd or 3rd gear. Most of the time shifting it back into N and back to drive will get it to upshift back to 4th. Would like to know what to look at and how to test. I have 5in vaccum at transmission at an idle. Any help Please and thanks.
I noticed my turbocharger has an ARV, the vacuum line appears to go into the vacuum line block on the valve cover. It appears to be connected to an open connection. Is it possible that the ARV was integral to a 1983 turbo?? Possibly someone replaced the unit as I just purchased this vehicle. How can I tell? Thanks, Bill
My 1976 300D w115 is missing a fuel primer pump. I think it came with one mounted to the fuel filter housing. Can I remove the plug on my fuel lift pump and install a new stye primer such as the monarch one you sell? Thanks, Chuck
Kent:
Just purchased a 1979 300SD with a great engine and body, but a trashed interior. Windows are not moving, switches for windows have been removed and just dangling (someone was obviously trying to diagnose the problem).
I have ordered your interior manuals about dashboards, etc. However, where can I find good replacement parts. Suggestions for sites? Also, how about exterior parts (i.e. like trim, etc.). Any suggestions on where to find those types of parts.
Also, do you have any guidance on troubleshooting the 116 windows?
Wanting to know what it will take to put an engine from a 1986 300SDL into my 1985 300sd. Thanks
