Those starters often fail by locking up completely when energized, at least that's what has happened to all of mine from that era.
If you hear the solenoid engage when you turn the key, the starter motor will need to be replaced. Not a terrible job, just get a long breaker bar to get the bolts loose. _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
