I just got one of these puppies to add to my stable. Anyone out there
with one? It's the W210 chassis. Nice car.

[diesel_mercedes] RE: PAP Visitations

 

For W123 - brake line connector donut nut that screws into the rear brake hose.  To get it you would cut the metal brake line just above the flexible brake hose, unscrew it from the brake hose, and toss the piece of metal brake line. 


I stripped one of these and ended up using vice-grips to get it back together.  One day I'm gonna fix it.  I haven't checked for new part...maybe it's only three bucks new, anyone know?  I don't even know the part number.  In fact, I don't even know what it's called.  Unless it's called the "brown nut."

I don't think it'd pull an O.D. Max. maybe with your foot buried, level or down hill. But I'd bet you'd not gain MPG's that way.
ya gotta have ponies to pull those tall gears.

Because it's extremely low geared. Has plenty of power for higher gear on the flats. Try driving my 85 Turdsel with the 1.5 L, it has a 5 speed. Max
