[MBZ] tranny about done on 190D, ac still not working on other 190D
Got the correct converter from Fred, that sure made the tranny go in alot easier!! Got it all buttoned up except for the flex disk. It seems the output flange is slightly bigger than the one that was on the tranny that came out of the car. Got to swap those tomorrow and it should be good to go to see if this is actually a good trans I installed. Cross your fingers. On the other 190D, installed a new AC compressor since the good used one was leaking at the front seal. Added one can, all the sudden I now have a pinhole leak on the high side manifold hose. Great. Guess I need to pull that off and have it rebuilt or find another one. -- Kaleb C.
