1982 300D Hard Injector Line Replacement Alternative?
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?

1980 450 SLC Engine Stalling after long run
Hi Folks ,
I recently bought a 450SLC in reasonable condition with a view to restoring.Motor starts fine & goes well.
I took it for a long run a couple of weeks a go & covered about 150kms without incident until I came back to town & stopped at traffic lights. The car started jerking when I took off & started loosing power. I managed to get home with problem slowly getting worse.
I turned the engine off & restarted it a few minutes later & it seemed to be revving cleanly again , but didn't take it out again until a couple of weeks later.

1987 300 SDL - getting to the auxiliary pump
I'm trying to replace the auxiliary pump and I'm having difficulty locating it between the two firewalls.
I removed the battery thinking the pump would be nearby, but all that gets me to is the monovalve. What else do I have to remove to access the pump?
Thank you.

For OM 617 non turbo and turbo in 1977 to 1985 300D 300CD 300TD and 300SD
84 300d turbo Valve adjustment and compression test
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

88 190d shut off lever staying down/ hard start
After I drive my 190D and shut It off,I noticed it has a hard time to restart sometimes.It has been like this for awhile now.After checking things out, I found that the stop lever on the injection pump stays down and takes a long time to come back up.Would this be a fault in the shut off valve?If i have someone hold the lever up the car starts right up.What would cause this to do that?
