[diesel_mercedes] Spare drip tube, anyone?

 

Hey y'all,
My '77 240D had been behaving pretty well lately. I did come up with a
ploy to prevent the injection pump from sticking on me, which I think is
the cause of my intermittent low power. I used to crank briefly three
times, then let it fire up, but I found that all I have to do is let the
glow plugs run for one cycle, the turn the key off and on two more times
and it fires right up.
I think I am ready to check the timing, adjust the valves and if time
permits, install the new injectors.
Does anyone have a spare timing drip tube they could part with?
Thanks,

I bought a Motion Pro pressure bleeder and love it ~ I use it on close to everything now, a real time saver plus zero air or old fluid left behind......

Faster too .

You're supposed to change brake fluid every 24 months or if it turns black, this tool will save you serious $ and headaches .

Yes, more scars, it turns out that Chicks _don't_ dig scars, oh well .

My arms will now be as ugly as my face .

The in home P.T. fella came by to - day and watched me hobble on my cane about two blocks, says I'm doing well, keep pushing .

The Fall TT Run is Sat/Sun, I've booked a space and am wondering if I oughta push it and drive my Diesel Sports Coupe.......

As long as I don't crash or fall down it should be fine, right ? .

Maybe I'll just ride shotgun on Tom's 300SDL .

Just got my calipers back on today. Doing something I've never done before is hard for me. I tend to do everything wrong before I get it right. But I got them back together and now I have to wait for someone to stop by to help bleed the system. If they leak I will go get re-builds and chalk it up to experience. If they work, then maybe I'll try it again. While under the car I noticed the rubbers for my front end are bad. Its still tight but obviously its gonna need a re-build. Anyone know what this costs? What exactly gets replaced? Who does this kind of work on cars like ours? 
Nate, your arm looks narly. Hope it heals well. Looks like your gonna have scars. Max
