Hi all! I wanted to ask a quick question for the group mind before I started
google-digging.
I think it's been answered before here, or at least I have a vague memory of
the topic from a year or so back...
I have a '84 300d (turbo) and I have let her sit for the last two years. Last
week I fired her up, (and she started up no problems) let her warm up for
about 15-20 minutes and then proceeded to drive her lightly each day since then.
I have noticed a few things I need to fix starting with new injectors and fule
lines/filters as there seems to be a slight "rattle" from somewhere up there
and I figure new injectors is a great place to start.. and some other minor
things, but there is one new noise that I can't place.
So, when I hit about 20 mph I will start to hear a slight ticking from what
appears to be behind the glove box. As I drive faster the clicking reves up
and gets loader and faster in synch with the engine.
When I idle back down to about 20, it slows down and goes away.
Does anyone know what this could be? Is there a vacuum pump up inside the dash
or on the other side of the firewall? ( I seem to remember that there may be)
Could it be door lock pump or some such up in there? I think I have some
slight vacuum leaks in general as she seem to shift a bit hard and the door
locks are slow.... it may be the/this pump????
Anyway, any thoughts would be appreciated.
