[diesel_mercedes] Replacement Parts

 

Max Wrote :



OK, I reminded myself why I bought a Schumks starter. I called the local dealer (MB)in Spokane today and I am sure I did way back when I first needed a starter. $528 MB dealer, Shumks about $100 lifetime. Yep, they suck, but I will not fork out $528.           they suck at alternators too. Max


Well Max ;


Me , I prefer to fix things once and right , I replaced the starter in Tom's 1981 300SD a few years ago , we bought one from the local NAPA store and it came with the all important NEW solenoid .


No further troubles with it .


Co$t about $150 IIRC .


FWIW , I used to be a BOSCH ReMan Dealer and they often stick brandy new units in the rebuilt boxes .


Lifetime warranty is worthless if you have to use it more than once due to low quality product .

[diesel_mercedes] Re: Diesel Fuel Return Hose 3.2 MM

 

Nate:

That's pretty much what I told you a few weeks ago that I used. I
wasn't sure if it was 3/16" or 1/8", but my brother and I have been
using it without incident for years. NAPA says it's nitrile for fuel,
including diesel. I thought it was neoprene. Whatever.
