Re: [diesel_mercedes] What is this?

 

When I want to find a particular (unknown) part, I always blow up the schematics that Performance Products (successor in Florida) has with a product #. Then it is off to Autohaus AZ to see a blowup picture of the part. Your photo is blurry but I have seen that part before - I think I broke a similar part off in the past.

I found my 1987 300SDL shifting hard today I have not driven it in almost 2 months and opened the hood and realized there was a vacuum line disconnected but in fact had a little plastic thing broken. I am adding the picture as an attachment to this email. hopefully someone can help me. Ive check mercedes source but could not find it. I was by the radiator hose and the diesel filter. It had one vacuum line one one end and the other but one end is broken. Any help would be great.

The N.O.S. lens I have , is wrong ~ it has a yellow turn lens , you have the later amber style .

Brian gets out to the yards more often than I do these days , maybe he'll find one for you .

So many have cracked reverse lenses .

I don't recall but I seem to recall having this issue on my Coupe a while back....

I know I had to change the GP Relay for some reason .

Maybe you can search my old posts for a flashing GP Light ? .

I do know the Euro Spec. W-123 wagon's GP light flashes but it also beeps so it's supposed to do that , one of these days I have to stop it as it's annoying .
