Do you replace the head bolts on these, like the ones that stretch to torque?

Also, try http://www.junkyarddog.com

You might fine one close to home.  Bill in Oregon

I found one about two weeks ago with a more realistic price way out on the western fringe in Missouri. Sooner or later I will find one. I just can't see paying way more for a head than for a decent car. And I have no room for a parts car.

Re: [diesel_mercedes] Factory Block Heater _Cord_

 

OK thank you.  My wife was bruised a little from the seat belt.  I was pulling out of a side street after the light changed.  The guy must have been going around the 50 MPH limit.
Luckily it was a glancing blow.  The other car stopped about 100' down the street.   If he had hit me broadside in the door, it would have been a different story.  A brief commercial for JC Taylor.  It was a stated value policy and they paid quickly and were very helpful with the whole transaction.  I was able to locally source an '83 replacement with 92,000 miles, so I'm still with the program.

I have the block end of the heater cable with about 2 feet of cable. You can splice in whatever you need to complete the circuit.  Thanks to an idiot who ran a red light while texting, I don't need it anymore.  See attachment.  Let me have your mailing address and I'll send it to you.

I am looking to doing a valve job on my 1977 240D, but I can take it off
the road for an extended length of time. My plan is to find a good used
head, go over it and install it. Mine has the larger glow plugs, brand
new and I would like to keep it authentic. I live in Wisconsin. Anyone
nearby looking to get rid of one?

Re: [diesel_mercedes] MORE TOOLS !

 

I picked up another Diesel, so I may need a fresh set of specialty tools, and join more e-groups/ forums.

'97 Ford 7.3 Powerstroke TD 4x4 Sportsmobile for camping. E350 chassis (Sprinter van versions seemed like crazy money)

(Kinda new, only 20yrs old, yet pre-smog test)

Drove it 250 miles home yesterday. Well taken care of, not a hiccup. After changing all the fluids et al, we'll take it out to the desert or something.

My MB 300D is still my daily driver, going on 12 1/2 yrs.

No problem max ~ just go buy and old VW Beetle and you'll be using the 17MM allen wrench .

For a moment there it sounded like you were complaining about buying more tools ! .

If that was so we'd have to yank your Man Card .
