I give special humanitarian credit to the driver for not accelerating to 45 MPH then making a full panic stop, which would have imparted enough energy to dislodge any grip the offending hood setter may have had and jettisoning him into oncoming traffic.. Question is raised, however, how did this "

Re: [MBZ] My new $500 124 Convertible

It was surprisingly not that bad. Body/paint is in very good condition, front bumper has some damage on the lower dam but nothing extreme. I'm thinking it will start and run with a minor fix. Top needs some investigation. For $500 can't go wrong even if he just cleans it up a bit and drives

Re: [MBZ] 124 Cab Info?

Dead fuel pumps aren't uncommon, but dead (or intermittent) fuel pump relays are way too common in 124 and 201 chassis. In my '86 W201, it was the relay, which worked fine for the first five minutes or so. Drove me nuts until I finally went to check the relay and found a piece of wire wrapped aro

Ok guys, who is the expert? I am not even sure how the convertible top is supposed to operate. I'm also going to need help diagnosing the non-running engine (1995 E320). Story is that about two years ago, the fuel pump was bad. Could this be a simple relay problem? - Max Charleston S
