Still cheaper than my 167hp 190E was in 1986 dollars.

Low pressure switch is usually on top of the receiver-drier. Short the wires
together and see if things run at that point. If so, you've lost your charge.

No, not the swimwear!
My 1987 wagon seems to have an inaccurate speedometer.
The diff. ratio is apparently 2.65:1, the same as my 190DT.
So, when doing 80 mph the tachometer on the 190 reads 3000 rpm. (2950 by the
book.)
When the 300TD is going the speed corresponding to 3000 rpm, the speedometer
Does a second GPS also say it's 80.

I guess it can work great one day and be low the next? I thought it
would be a gradual degradation Evidently not ;-)

Well, I think it looks very impressive on the road (at least in black).
And certainly it isn't wanting for technological features. I imagine
though, it's quick start guide is bigger the most owners manuals!

Actually you should change it regularly. If you do a lot of service, it's
almost monthly. There are guidelines which I don't remember, but I do remember
them surprising me at how often it should be changed.
