[diesel_mercedes] 300SD in "The Hunt"

 


Thanx ! .

I've not yet begun T.V. watching, I have so many books to read first but most of my friends tell me they're binge watching their favorite T.V. shows....

Be Proactive, not afraid ! .

Been seeing ads for "The Hunt" on TV lately - while I have no interest
in the show or series, there are two half-second cameos of a burgundy
Mercedes 300 which I wanted to see more of. Thankfully my cable box and
DVR allow pause/reply - captured this w/ my camera - thought I'd share
it here. No idea why the man is falling out of the car....

Mark, if you were closer, I'd be all over your W123!

However, I'm in Australia and I've settled for the next best thing to a
OM617 diesel powered Merc - I'm thinking about going all bad-ass and
buying myself a big Unimog UL1700L (ex-Australian Army, low kilometres
and well maintained) for our farm. These are powered by the OM352A
turbocharged 6 cylinder diesel which is the same size (capacity wise) as
a English 6.354 Perkins (5.8 litres) - about 180hp with the turbo alone.
I'm thinking of paying a UK based company who specialises in 'Mog
repairs and aftermarket accessories for one of their amazing intercooler
kits and a few little add-ons which would increase the power to well
over 200hp. Add on all the bits and pieces (such as three point
linkages, PTO's, hydraulic spool valves, agricultural tyres and the
like) and it's one hell of a capable machine which I need to have for
the farm!

Joe

Them's the brakes, I suppose!

However, I have something more substantial than a W123 in mind at the
moment..... a ex-Australian Army Mercedes-Benz UL1700L Unimog. A big
Mercedes-Benz diesel (OM352A) instead of our beloved OM617's!

https://www.pickles.com.au/trucks/item/-/details/CP-11-86--Mercedes-Benz--UL1700L--4x4--Tray-Top/1090016532

If I get one, I have a few little options that I plan to fit to it!
Firstly, a aftermarket intercooler from a specialist Unimog repair
facility in the UK!

I am considering selling my '77 240D. It spent most of its life in
Missouri and Iowa. I brought it to Wisconsin about 5 years ago and have
done quite a bit of work to it. From the front to the back, it's had
replaced radiator auxiliary fan, water pump, fuel hand pump, glow plugs
(pencil type), adjusted valves with new VC gasket, starter motor, upper
and lower hoses, battery, tires, upper and lower ball joints, all tie
rod ends, shocks were new when I bought it, speedometer repaired, door
lock handles replaced, rebuild all locks, change trans grease (4 speed
manual), exhaust complete, brake pads and front calipers. The body is
pretty good, with an aging repaint and bubbling just starting on the
front dog legs and in the rear lower panel. chrome is present and good.
windshield could use replacement as PO ran bad wipers. I have some extra
parts, a set of Monark injectors I have not gotten around to installing.
Less than 200,000 miles, but not sure exact as the odo was not working
when I bought it.

Looking to get $5000.

In Wisconsin.

[diesel_mercedes] Leaky 722.XXX Tranny Modulator O-Ring

 


O.K. Rob ;

You know I'm always trying to learn more.......

To - day I adjusted the I.P.'s vacuum control valve, turned the ball socket two complete 360 degree turns COUNTERCLOCKWISE, _lenghthenig_ it then snugged up the 8MM ATF jamb nut, now it shifts sooner, what I'd been hoping for .

I downloaded a nice D.I.Y. how to check and adjust the tranny's internal pressure correctly, I'm gathering up tools & bits to try it and will post to the group when I've done it .

Nate,

No, I didn't get any decent pics this time. The spot in the tranny where the modulator goes is just out of sight, up in between the tranny and car body, so hard to get a good view, and bad lighting.

I drove the MB to work and back and still don't smell ATF, so I think I'm good. I'll check under the car next weekend, or thereabouts.
