Curt, et al. On an '85 190D it isn't too hard to get the starter out, or check the connections. Apart from the lower bolt the rest is accessible from the drivers side top, after removing the air filter box complete. A 190E is (was) a lot more difficult as the cruise actuator is in front of the starter and it is under the fuel injection stuff on the hard to remove manifold. Not fun in the cold, but most is doable from under the hood. Fred Moir Lynn MA 85 300TD 87 190DT Bent
