[diesel_mercedes] Oil pressure gauge repair

 

OK, I shouldn't have anymore more oil oozing out from under the dash, at
least not from the oil pressure gauge.

I followed Kent's directions on replacing the oil pressure gauge
actuator, and it was pretty easy, though breaking the clock adjust knob
added a little more time to the project. Ended up drilling out the two
plastic halves and gluing/ jamming a cutoff nail in between. That seemed
to work fine.

I'll wait a little bit to make sure it's all good before reattaching the
covers and putting the carpet back, as I ran the carpet cleaner over
them for awhile, and look pretty good. Anyone find any good new floor
mats recently. I could use a set.

Recently I also replaced the battery, and front speakers. I'm trying to
catch up on a handful of neglected MB issues/projects to get the car
back into a fun, nice looking, reliable car again.
