[diesel_mercedes] Oil Cooler Hoses Video

 


Thanx Bill ;

I tried to watch this and my earphone thing seems to have died so I'll give it a look later .

It's Tuesday and I'm still sore / tired from Sunday's marathon of working .

I guess I may be getting too old for this =8-( .

I'll report back as soon as I watch this video , might be a while as I'm off duty and going with my Son to  - day .

Subject: [diesel_mercedes] Oil Cooler Hoses -HELP- !

 

1984 300TD .

I was able to sneak out the lower hose but the top one won't come out for clearance issues so I unbolted the lower motor mount 100MM Allen head bolts , undid the four 17MM ATF nuts on the left side support and removed the tiny engine shock absorbers , tried to jack the engine up so I could remove the left side cast alloy support but there's -no- gap between the support and the motor mount (?!?) .

WTHeck ? .I can't see what's holding the engine from raising up , I'm sure some one here will know what I've forgotten to undo ......

TIA ,   -Nate

[diesel_mercedes] Fuel Economy Check '84 300CD Automatic

 

336 miles , 24 MPG , silver bottle Diesel Kleen used .

NO AC use ! .

$1.99 / gallon , this is very goof for Los Angeles , it's been going up again here .

I saw $3.79 yesterday on my way to the Union 76 Station with the $1.99 price .

Since the IP timing has been adjusted I have almost 2 X the power I used to , the engine is running @ just under 80* C , it used to run about 75* C .

The # 1 cylinder element is still weeping , as I have the wagon apart ( ! STILL) for repairs and waiting parts I don't want to disable my Coupe to fool with the IP's element sealing , I'm reasonably sure I know what's amiss and how to fix it .
