I have a 1975 300D it is very difficult to start and when I do get it to start there is a load clacking noise that doesn't change when engine is idle or at higher RPM's.
I HAVE A 1988 300SE THAT AFTER SETING FOR 2 MONTHS IT WILL START COLD JUST LIKE NEW BUT AFTER WARMING UP 15 MINS OR SO IT STARTS MISSING AT IDLE AND DIES WHEN YOU TRY TO START IT IT TURNS OVER GOOD B
Kent: If the knock or taping noise is in fact a piston pin, what is likely to happen if I keep driving the car. I just returned from a 360 mile trip and the noise has not changed.
I have a 240D 1981 and the emergency brake does not engage when I press down the pedal. It seems as though the cable has too much slack in it to be able to push out the brake shoes.
I don't find any reference on the Mercedes Source website to converting a W210 chassis. I just bought a 99 E300TD with 132,000 miles and would like to convert it to WVO using the GreaseOn system.
I do not have a very extended circle of old MB friends. None that I have, however, has a cruise control that works. How problematic are they? I commute 75mi. round trip daily, at least one way with very little traffic. Would cruise improve my milage? I have mostly flat terrain on my route, nothing I down shift for. I would be interested in others experiences. Thanx, Larry
Hello. I'm trying to find a part number and/or supplier for a particular fuel hose on my 1972 220D. The hose runs from right near the primer pump up to the pre-filter (or in-line filter).
