[diesel_mercedes] Re: Window problems

 

It must be something between the switch and where you have jumpered.

Did you test the switch resistance to make sure they are working? I doubt if new switches are bad...

Maybe the connector(s) have crud in them?

[diesel_mercedes] WOO _ HOO !

 


I am well pleased ~

After yesterdays 1/8 turn of the idle stop screw , I noticed less smoke when leaving dead stops and faster , smoother accelleration too ! .

This morning I cold started the car without touching the throttle and it lit right off and idled , NO SHAKING ! .

An engin miss in a diesel is not only rare , it's a serious thing due to the nature of compression ignition engines , I think the miss was coking up the cylinders as my smoking is sharply reduced , so much so I got home last night and rigged out the garden hose , got my old milk crate to sit on and a .99 cent bottle of " MAGIC !! Spray On , Wipe Off Tire & Wheel Cleaner " and an old paint brush , sat down and carefully washed all four wheels then I cleaned the Diesel Smoot off the cove and rear bumper of my Coupe , it looks very spiffy (not really but those parts are clean anyway) again and I'm keen to se if the Smoot collects at a slower pace now.....

Well , off to work I go .

Be well and thanx for all the help I get here .

-Nate
