Trying to replace the regulator slide on a 83' 126. I have everything off and the regulator is unbolted and loose, but I can't seem to fiqure out how to disconnect the wireing. It seems to be hard wired into the regulator and unhooking the switch still leaves wires connected. Please help, before I start splicing.
Thanks again for the help!!!!
I'm assuming that in order to replace lift gate struts, the molded plastic headliner piece must be removed. I have re-
moved the six small screws and the rear interior overhead light fixture but the headliner piece remains firmly
attached. What don't I know now? Thanks in advance for your help.
I replaced a failing differential in a 1983 300D which had a 3.07/1 final drive ratio with a w126 differential with a 2.47/1 final drive ratio. RUNS GREAT!!! Of course, what the tranny-driven mechanical speedometer-odometer now registers is about 80% of what the actual speed and mileage are. I would like the instruments to reflect actual speed and mileage.
In the original vehicle, an electrical speed sensing unit on the differential connects to the instrument cluster.
I believe that the vacuum actuator for the center flaps needs replacement. Unfortunately, it looks like it's a real difficult part to remove. I'm wondering if you've ever had to pull and replace this? If yes, how did you do it? And ::fingers crossed:: were you able to do it without removing the dash?
When running diesel fuel should the coolant heat exchanger be by-passed with valving so the diesel fuel is not heated? My current setup heats fuel to 140 - 150F at the IP when looped mode is not used.
I have a '84 300TD wagon. Last year I took the car in to get the A/C checked out as it was not working when I purchased the car. They checked the lines and it seemed to hold pressure just fine. They replaced the valve with one for R134 and put two cans in, and at once the compressor kicked on and started blowing cold air. The aux fan has never worked but that didn't seem to matter much unless I was standing still and it would be a little less cool. Everything has been working fine for the last year, until recently.
Was wondering how to perform diesel purge on my car which has a wvo system installed by greasecar. I can't seem to determine which is the incoming diesel line.
Any help would be well appreciated.
Thanks
Moving the down the highway my daily 1985 300SD w/' 225k blows cold. However, when idling the blower is strong pushing only warm air. Need advice on what I need to look at / DYI replace parts / or schedule an appointment with MB mechanic.
Thanks
