124 1994 E320 Weather stripping KRYTOX GPL205 or 105??
Has anyone used Krytox to preserve and protect the weather stripping around doors and windows? I bought the thicker GPL205 and now think I should have ordered the thinner 105 for this application.
any thoughts?? Thanks

removing undercoating/rust 1979 300D
I was wondering what the best way to remove stock undercoating is for the at home mechanic?
Also, I seem to have a pretty large rust problem. I have Miracle Paint and would like to attack it from top and bottom but it seems like one of the screws holding down my passenger seat is rusted to the body. How do I get it out? Of course it's the right rear screw, the hardest to reach to begin with.

transmission kickdown switch adjustment?
I have a 1983 300d. The accelerator pedal is not engaging my transmission kickdown switch on the floorboard. It makes contact with the switch but does not mash it down enough to engage the switch. Does anyone know the best way to adjust the throttle linkage to take out the free travel in my pedal and adjust it so that it completely engages the kickdown switch? Thanks for the help!
