I have a 1980 300TD wagon with the hydralic suspension.Does anyone have a test procedure to get it working again.The car rides like a pogo stick. Back end just bounces up and down on bumps.Alternately has anyone modified theirs to an air system like people do with trucks when they add a camper.ThanksMark

O.K. , we're home again all safe abnd sound , no one crashed although some boob tried to beat a train and got creamed at a grade crossing in Victor Ville , Ca.
Two tanks of fuel one 27.2 MPH , t'other @ 22.6 MPH , this was the second tank full and I was heading home in the freeway going 85 ~ 90 + MPH a goodly bit of it , I was still 45 minutes late for the catered dinner .
More and pictures Tuesday when I have access to a faster computer .
