You can make it a trip of a lifetime.  You can drive all the way across 
Canada to toronto or Ottawa and then head south.  Or you could go south 
earlier and hit Jellystone park.  What an Opportunity!

He just called me, I caught him on the road a couple of hours ago and he made 
the appointment for me to pick it up before he remembered somebody else was 
supposed to buy it at 11 tonight. I'll go get it if it's still available in the 
morning. It's 3600rpm and a single cylinder so it'll vibrate plenty but 
probably be quieter than a 3600rpm gasser.

Re: [MBZ] OT: What's an 8hp Lombardini Diesel worth these days?

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

for perspective, I think I paid $250 for a very old 4000 Watt genny with 
a kohler vergasser, out of a pullman car and thought I had a good deal.  
It is much more quiet than modern BS powered gennys.   And the old 
Kohler engine is solid and rebuildable if it was ever worn out.It is 
big enough to run a refer, lights and a radidio in a "linesdown" event.

Re: [MBZ] W115 300D 1976 - neutral safety switch bypass

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

Dunno about 115, but I think it is pretty much the same as 123.  I did 
that on 123 by pulling the gearshift surround.  On the 115, you may have 
to pull the whole console.  The switch lives above the trans and in 
front of the shifter.  With a wiring diagram, you can probably do it 
under the hood or under the dash.  If you trace the wires from under the 
car, thind follow it under the hood, you may be able to jump the wires 
in an easier location.



David Bruckmann via Mercedes 
May 6, 2017 at 5:14 PM
Hello everyone,

I've determined that my 300D's neutral safety switch is kaputt. 
Wiggling the shifter works OK, but diminishingly so, and yesterday it 
took five minutes (at the gas station!) to get the starter to fire. 
I'll order a new switch on Monday, but in the meantime I'd like to 
bypass it.


I've seen several posts for where the electrical connector is located 
for the neutral safety switch on W123 and W126 models, but none for a 
W115 300D. Is it in the engine compartment (W126), cabin (W123), or 
under the car somewhere?


Having a devil of a time locating any section of any MB manual that 
covers this switch; closest I've gotten is a bootleg copy of a 722.3 
manual for a G-wagen.


Thanks for any and all tips,

D.

The neutral safety switch CONNECTOR is in the cabin on the W123 model.

The switch itself is on the driver's side of the transmission, mounted on
the shaft that comes out of the inside the transmission and to which the
bellcrank run by the rod to the shift lever is mounted.

in the engine compartment (W126), cabin (W123), or under the car somewhere? 

Having a devil of a time locating any section of any MB manual that covers this 
switch; closest I've gotten is a bootleg copy of a 722.3 manual for a G-wagen.

Thanks for any and all tips,

D.

Re: [MBZ] 210 diff

[Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes]

Well the diff is out of the car. I want to remove the cover to see the damage 
but I guess I don't have a set of triple square sockets or whatever they call 
it. I need to go ahead and order a new flex disk so hope to finish it next 
week.

The socket is e12. It was a whore of a job getting them off. These 
things have to be on just right or you will strip it or it flys off 
the bolt head. I have several scraped knuckles after this job. They 
have lock tight applied to the bolts, so you have to use a long 
breaker bar to break them loose and continue loosening them. The axle

First one: you'd want to replace that gas hose every 2-3 yrs to keep it

tubing (with short hunks of hose for flex)


Second one:  Well, that is a special price  take the one off the

$30/$40k rust repair there.  (to hire it out)  But I am betting it IS in

Nice low serial number though, and low engine number.  I avoid pre 63

Re: [MBZ] This looks interesting

Especially when it is a euro version.  A 107 280SL will outrun the us 
versions of the 350, 450, 380, and possibly the 560 in american trim. 
Yuro M110 is a hot engine. (for its day)   It is not a 2.3 cosworth as 
in the 190E 2.3-16, but it is NOT shabby.


A us version 300SEL is not far from a 200D automatic

It was drilled into our heads in the 60s and 70s:  the fallicy, "there's 
no replacement for displacement"  My first foray into German cars showed 
me different, and even before that, in HS, a guy had a Fiat Abarth that 
caused may stories to be told.  That Abarth was what?  maybe 1200cc  no 
more than 1600.

Re: [MBZ] TDI for Curt and Angie

[Curt Raymond via Mercedes]

I'm anti-Beetle...
I'm thinking the '98 will last me one more year, its been pretty much rock 
solid reliable for the past year and with a little rust repair it should go one 
more. During that time I'm going to scout for another '97-'06 to replace it. 
There were no TDIs before '97 and after '06 they require the DPF (diesel 
particulate filter) so I'm going to hold myself to that range.

[MBZ] 210 diff

[Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes]

Well now that the nos diff arrived weeks ago it's time for me to start in on 
that job. Been lazy today so far even thought it's a beautiful day out but I am 
getting ready to head out to the shop to yank the old diff out of the car. Been 
dreading this job not so much the removing it but the fact that I got to swap 
the flange from the old one to the new one, which can be a swine of a job to 
get the nut loose I have heard.

Besides which if you fixed it that way and a buyer finds it later you're going

Re: [MBZ] TDI for Curt and Angie

[Curt Raymond via Mercedes]

Thats not all that unusual, the are plenty of folks on the TDI forums with 
400,000+ miles. TDIs often get lumped in with the older IDI engines which 
needed top end work around 250,000 miles. My Jetta has 280,000+ with no engine 
problems that I can detect. Sadly the body is rusting away. I may start looking 
for another 3rd gen Jetta with a blown engine to transplant mine into. 

The timing belt isn't a weak point as long as you change it on schedule with a 
quality unit. Sadly people stretch the interval and/or use cheap belts and 
munch the heads. Rarely is there any bottom end damage in such a case though so 
putting it right isn't all that terrible.
I like the 3rd gen TDI vs the 4th gen (we have both, Angie's '05 Golf is 4th 
gen), its a little less refined (the 3rd gen I mean) and rattly but its 
lighter, quicker off the line and gets better fuel economy. My car averaged 
50mpg all winter...

All the better, as it’s far more likely to find me a nice one.

This is a search for a really nice W124 non-turbo diesel, actually.  I’m pretty 
sure I’m going to buy it, I just want someone to take a look at it for me 
before I send the guy his money and arrange for transport.  If I score it you 
will be jealous, as it is very nice and I will get it for a Kleb price.

For what it’s worth, I’ve got a call on a nice finnie outside of Medford, OR 
scheduled in about an hour.  Beautiful car but the seller wants far too much 
for it - it’s a 65 190c, probably one of the least desirable models there was.  
It’s very nice but grandpa totally hosed up the dash by making a “custom” wood 
dash for it.  They’ve had it on the market for some time, which is a major tell 
relative to the price ($12k!) but I’m willing to give it a shot and see if 
they’re flexible.

There's no drip edge either, which should keep water from going back 
up under.

In the first picture, it looks like there is a low spot about 1/2 exposed
shingle width from the gutter and then the shingle slopes up to the
gutter.

If that's the case, extending the shingles will do no good.

Re: [MBZ] Messed up roofing

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

Get a siding guy ro bend a drip edge on the flashing.  It looks like you 
need 12-14" stuffed up there.  THat means you need to pull the nails 
from 3 courses of shingles.  I doubt you can do that without ruining 
shingles.  If you can pull soffit and grind off the protruding nails 
under the sheeting then put the flashing UNDER the sheeting and then put 
plywood or 1 bys underneath to support the who mess, that might work.



Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes 
May 6, 2017 at 8:33 AM
You know instead of ripping that all out I may try and get some 
flashing and insert it up under the shingles along the end he to raise 
up the dip and overhang the gutters a bit. I would really like to get 
those lead guard gutters and let them do the whole thing, but that is 
probably way more than I want to spend.

I have little experience with delivery valves.  But I'd try it.
Not sure there is value in sanding the washer.  Definitely anneal
it before reusing it.

Re: [MBZ] Messed up roofing

[Floyd Thursby via Mercedes]

Yes you want a metal drip edge that goes up under the shingles then 
hangs over the fascia that the gutter is attached to. It should be 
installed before the shingles are put on.  In your case you can slide 
some flashing up under the edge of the shingles and either have it hang 
over that back edge of the gutter, or bend it down so the water doesn't 
run back up under the bottom due to surface tension.

Re: [MBZ] 1995 Mercedes-Benz S-Class S320 sedan $1595

[Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes]

Uh no, not really. They are very solid and reliable cars. Do they have more 
electronics than your 126, yes. I had a 300se for years and it was dead 
reliable except for the evaporator that started leaking but was covered under 
warranty.

if you can get some 6" flashing up under there then bend it down over 
the inner gutter edge to make a drip edge you might be OK, but that dip 
in the shingles is still gonna collect water

[MBZ] Interesting 280SE W111 coupe on BAT

Wonder where the bidding on this coupe will settle.  Obvious problems:

1) Missing 3.5 badge
2) crank windows
3) frozen sunroof
4) Upholstery tears
5) Undercarriage and trunk rust
6) Inappropriate modern wheels

On the positive side gotta love the color and zebrano wood, plus the cool
Euro mystery switches.  I briefly owned two of these in tunis beige 20
years ago.

 I'm thinking mid 20s. Any other guesses?

Re: [MBZ] 1995 Mercedes-Benz S-Class S320 sedan $1595

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

My W140s have been pretty bulletproof for the most part.  I haven’t had to 
touch the 1994 other than maintenance for some months now, and the things that 
came up were not unusual or difficult to fix.  For example, I had the wiper 
delay relay fail on it a few months ago.  Got a rebuilt off Amazon for $50 and 
sold the core to Programa for $35, so it cost me a net of $15.

The Tommymobile just won’t die.  It’s got near 300k on it and it just keeps 
running and running.

These are good solid cars if the weak parts like wiring harnesses have been 
addressed.  My SL500 that has the same running gear has barely been touched 
since I bought it 2-1/2 years ago.
