1985 300D loss of power after 20-25 mins
My wife has been driving our 85 the 35 mile trip to work everyday and has had the same problem twice now in the last couple days. After about 25 mins of driving at 70 mph, the car would lose power like a clogged fuel filter. I drove it today and it started to do the same thing after about 30 mins of driving when I floored it up a steep hill near our house at about 55mph. The fuel filters are both fresh with a new priming pump and the air filter is clean. The loss of power is temporary. The car feels fine again after slowing down or stopping.

79' 300D loud clunking/rattling from rear end on right turns
My 1979 300D started making a very loud and concerning metal on metal rattle about two days ago on my home. I didn't do anything to warrant it either, it just started around a 90 degree right turn at about 15 mph. Now, it makes the sound which comes equally from both sides every time I turn right at greater than 5 mph and progressively gets faster with speed. It is definitely a rotational sound too.

86 560sel low rpm sputtering
My 86 560sel sputters as i first step on the gas. At about 1500 rpm the engine picks up and runs like the beast its supposed to be. When i come to a complete stop and the car is still in gear the engine misses constantly. If i just put it in neutral it revs a little and runs smooth again. I just bought this car for next to nothing and put heat in the gas tank, along with a good amount of the recommended "premium" fuel, and it seems to have helped a little bit so far.

'76 300D intermittent odometer/jumpy speedometer ??
My odometer stopped working about a week ago for a day. It's worked 90% of the time over the past week, but there's a problem in there somewhere. Also, my speedometer is jumpy under 15mph. Not sure if the two are related. Took out the instrument cluster and noticed that one of the corners on the speedo cable is rounded. Could that be causing both problems? Also, any tips on how to test and see if the odometer gears are slipping?
By the way - only 95k actual miles, so the odometer hasn't had that bad of a workout.

'77 300D Electrical Misbehavior
I've noticed some unusual noise in my Becker radio that I think is coming from the electrical system. It occurs when listening to an FM station as a sort of burping sound when at idle. An increased electrical load such as headlamps or a turn signal cause the sound to increase. Increasing the engine RPM causes the sound to stop. When listening to AM radio at idle, the sound is like a growl that rapidly turns into a screech as the engine is accelerated. Since this is a diesel engine, it can't be from an ignition circuit.
