A person can really tell which models were popular to drive by the
number of examples available in the toy car listing on eBay. Nobody
likes the humble 114/115. At least to make one of those chinese
models. There are one or two I have found, but they cost almost as
much as what I paid for

you need to replace your front and rear window seals. In the front, you
might also have a hole in the firewall under the battery tray.

Yeah, I'm told that acid from the battery commonly eats a hole through
the firewall there, causing leaks.

...And they came off fairly easily, now that I knew where/how to apply

Speaking of which I saw an '85 300D for sale the other day. Exterior is decent

Mileage in the low 200k range. I think they wanted $2k which is high but its
been there for a couple weeks now.

After many weeks and a few red herrings, we finally tracked down the
oil pressure issue plaguing my '95 E300D. Checking through MB's tech

probably others) the camshafts are hollow and oil runs down
them. There is a freeze plug at

Your '77 300D should NEVER drop into 1st except when the kickdown switch

That's according to The Automatic Transmissions Maintenance

A...Thanks for checking the manual, Herr Doktor.
What always gave me pause is the oil control in older engines is rarely
perfect, and 0-weight oil seems like it would leak out much easier. If
it pours like water, is it really going to stay in the engine? The
Marshall answer would be to fix the leaks, of course. :)

burned out glow plug or two -- fuel doesn't burn until the engine warms
up a bit.
Other causes are blow head gasket (coolant in the combustion chambers)
and a failed vacuum modulator on the tranny, allowing transmission
fluid to go down the intake.
The latter smells terrible, easy to check.
