There are at least three versions of the linkage on the 240D, and some of it is NLA. My 80 has the version with a level on the valve cover that has an integrated piece of rubber (which was later moved to the firewall). That piece is NLA, and mine is starting to tear. Might have to enlist the 3D

I agree. Pop the balls off the sockets, clean and lubricate and exercise the linkages. Not sure if atf is the right stuff to use vs synthetic grease that Mercedessource recommends. Sent from my iPhone > On Jan 25, 2021, at 7:43 PM, Allan Streib via Mercedes > wrote: > > I would think clean

I would think clean and lube would be all that's needed, unless something's broken or missing? Not sure what the best sources are for W123 parts these days. Allan Donald Snook via Mercedes writes: > Where can I buy the accelerator linkage parts? I found the pivot point on > eBay. But, I’m

Where can I buy the accelerator linkage parts? I found the pivot point on eBay. But, I’m wondering if somebody sells a kit to replace all the parts. Donald H. Snook ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To

[MBZ] 240D linkage part

Remember the discussion about the bushing for the 240D linkage. Folks on Benzworld say this part will work to replace it.  You have to cut out the bushing part and install it on the leaver. http://www.autohausaz.com/pn/1100720038 --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG.

My long-sold 123.190 had a similar problem, solved by pushing pieces of rubber fuel hose over the ends of those prongs and then jamming the round rubber into the square holes. I think I had to replace the rubber once in three years, the PO / previous mechanic had implemented that fix and it was

They have been not available for years. I asked Q way long ago. They MAY come with a new cable. They should! It would make for a very expensive half gram of plastic. Only thing I know of is to get a piece of 3/8 brass rod and machine your own. The brass will last forever. the plastic
