[diesel_mercedes] Re: 79 300D vacuum hoses

 

i should add, plug all the open tubes with golf tees, and see if it helps with the non functioning doors etc.

The vacuum pump is sucking but it doesn't feel very strong. I'll get a reading on it tomorrow to see what it's pulling. The engine also shuts off right away so that part seems to be working fine.

I have 3 hoses that were plugged off and need to find out where they are supposed to go. I think one or more might need to go to something on the valve cover but nothing up there. A diagram for a 79 would be good, also. I find a lot of diagrams for newer models, but they all have an EGR and mine doesn't.

[diesel_mercedes] nice surprise

Hi all!!
I've been out of the loop, mourning the sale of my SDL, sorry.
But, today, as I'm getting ready to take the parts one, to the new owner, I
decided to take a battery over to my 85 (or is it 83?) 300D (the beauty I
got, that got smashed in the rear quarter and totaled).
It's been sitting for 3 years, up on blocks.
I put the battery in, and thought first I better crank a little, to get fuel
to the injectors, before going through the glow plug/start procedure.
it's been in the high 20's here at night, but was about 55 deg. at the time.

I turned the key, to crank to get fuel........and the dang this started!!
That quick!! no glow plug time or anything.
I was so shocked, I shut it off!! haha

then, turned the key and it fired perfectly, like I drive it every day.
I ran and got a couple gallons of fresh diesel, put about 5 times
concentration of "PRI-D" diesel treatment, along with the same concentration
of algae killer/preventative (I forget the name, but it's yellow). and
poured them in the tank. It sat there idling like a sewing machine for about
1.5 hours!
no smoking, nothing. I revved it a few times, turned the heater on high, and
even put it in all gears, forward and reverse, just to "lube it all up".

well anyway, just a happy surprise, it worked so nicely. The engine has 220K
on it.

If anyone wants to clean me out, I've still got a 220D manual trans with
cracker head, the above car, and another half stripped parts 123.
I'd let 'em all go cheap, if you took it all.

Henry

[diesel_mercedes] Re: 79 300D vacuum hoses

 

Hi Chuck,

Thanks for asking for more info. Under glowplugs 2-3 I found:
Mercedes Benz
617 011 03 01
11D-79

Under the coolant hose coming out at cyl 5 there are the letters AB

Not sure if that is what you were looking for, if not, steer me in the right direction.

It's a US model and no EGR to be found anywhere. Could have been removed. This one has no vacuum lines going to the transmission. Has linkage from the throttle going over the valve cover to the right side under the manifolds back to the trans on the right side. It shifts fine through the gears. The vacuum pump is sucking but it doesn't feel very strong. I'll get a reading on it tomorrow to see what it's pulling. The engine also shuts off right away so that part seems to be working fine.

Coming off the main vacuum line from the pump to brake booster I found the following:
First line splits. one line to a three way connector and the other a red line that is plugged.

The three way splits off to a line going into the firewall on the center, the left has a one to a two hose valve with black line and the other plugged off. The other side has another 1 to two hose valve with a green line and a red/white line. There are two yellow lines coming out of the firewall into a three way fitting that has the third part plugged.

Hope this helps id some of this. Door locks and ACC non functional so I'm guessing that some of the ones plugged off go to those? The car runs pretty well but the brake boost feels a bit weak. It does have a new booster and seal ring at the master cyl.

thanks,
David
