Understood.  I have to go back and look at my notes to see if I checked the 
cable adjustment.  For the most part is shifts fine.

Thanks!

Ok just checking. Vacuum only affects the firmness of the shift on these. If it 
shifts late it's probably the cable out of adjustment.

I connected it to the modulator, of course.

Gotta go to the source to be sure.  And just for grins, I replaced the hard 
line and flexible connectors after I tested it,and it leaked with them in line, 
too.

But thanks for the suggestion.

It sort of makes sense now, as the shifts in low gears were always a little 
late, which would certainly point to a low vacuum.  I just attributed it to the 
3 liter engine which they tend to wind up a bit compared to the V8s.

No that does not tell you the modulator is leaking. Did you put it to the line 
going to the modulator or did you get under the car and hook it directly to the 
modulator. If you hooked it to the line it could be th modulator, the rubber 
connector at the modulator, or the hard line itself. You need to get under the 
car to narrow the leak to either the line or the modulator.

Re: [MBZ] Sunday's 300SEL Fun

2017-03-19 Thread Peter Frederick via Mercedes
Sounds like more fun that I had -- just front brakes and hoses on the TE -- 
rotors were marginal and the pads pretty worn but not shot, but I was getting a 
grinding sound on firm brake application so I replace everything.

Found that the rotor retaining screw had broken away a ring of the disk, so I'm 
betting the drag and pulsation I was getting up front was a rotor installed on 
a dirty hub.  It was done by my brother when he put new ball joints in it while 
I was down with heart failure a couple years ago.  Should have done what I 
thought of and re-installed that rotor myself, he's prone to rushing and 
getting pissed and not doing things quite right.

So now the pedal feels right, there is no pulsation or drag, car feels almost 
like  a Benz should.

Got  an annual bonus check from work, smaller than I'd like, but enough that I 
will order the rear parts tomorrow - rotors, pads, new springs and pins, a 
caliper rebuild kit for one side, and the three rear hoses.  Dollar to a 
doughnut I have a bad brake line causing drag.

Might finally get decent milage with this car, it's been very low 20s and as 
low as 18 mpg, even on the highway.  Tires might last a bit longer, too!

Now if I can just figure out why I have intermittent heater blower 
activity.  Damned thing works if you wriggle the connector up by the brake 
booster, but only until you shut it off.  I'm thinking one of the pins or 
sockets in the connector has a bad solder connection.

I make it with the ends of a beef tenderloin rather than short ribs.  Yum.

In Korea they prepare this stuff right at the table on butane burners.  The 
cooks stand there and turn the beef while cutting it into smaller pieces with a 
pair of shears.

Done.

Got everything back together without a great deal of effort.  Tensioned the new 
belt before tightening the 19mm bolt.  Made a fan pulley holding tool from a 
“J” hook and a pencil.  Temporary, but now I have a template for a tool I can 
make at a later date.

Still got a little squeal on startup which sounds like the air pump based on 
the mechanic’s stethoscope.  I may have to go to the pre-airpump engine belt 
and just eliminate the air pump.

I’m done for the day, other than some cleaning up. Last big job will be the 
driveshaft center bearing and the front flex disc.  Bearing and carrier should 
be here by Tuesday, but I expect I’ll do the job next weekend due to the amount

Just got done cleaning what I suspect was about a half pound of belt dressing 
off the various pulleys.  Oy!

I just figured there was some bits of old belt stuck in the grooves of some of 
the pulleys, but when I went at the stuff with a small slotted screwdriver I 
found that it was putty-like and quite sticky.  Fortunately, brake cleaner 
breaks it down well, so all of the pulleys got an initial scrape to remove what 
I could and break up the surface, then a soaking in brake cleaner, another 
scrape, another soak, then a brass brush run all the way around until the 
grooves were clean.

Jeez, I even found the stuff on the outer edge of the fan pulley which the back 
of the belt contacts.  Grr.

A quick respite for some sustenance and back out for reassembly.
