Re: [diesel_mercedes] Re: Bought the wrenches.

 

I had two homemade wrenches for valve adjustment made by bending (under acetylene torch heat) them.  Used them for my 1979 300d.

Turned the crank with homeade cable and switch to the starter.

Now many years later I have a 1984 300SD (125000 miles only...for now!) and must have misplaced the good old bent wrenches (as well as the cable switch) and need soon to make some new ones from long flat wrenches which I have. 

Forgot exactly the bending angles but may figure it out from the pictures of some I see on the web.

Will let you know how I do it again when the time comes.

Have fun, JC
