    Starting-up a 1992 190E after 18 months of Non-Use

    Some time ago I took advice on how to start an Evo II which had been laid up for 11 years. 1. Check it has oil 2. Undo the HT lead 3. Connect a good battery 4. Spin the engine up to check it has oil pressure 5. Re-connect the HT lead 6. Start the engine. Modern oils have tremendous...

    Billy's W124 Coupe Project

    "The m104 is a heavy old lump," Au contraire my friend, the M104 as a 3.6 weighs 154 KG's. An M103 2.6 weighs 170 KG's , and an M102 16V weighs 169 KG's. Go figure. :dk: Actually it is because there are bigger holes in the block therefore less meat and is made of a lot of magnesium both...

    M104 3.6 AMG lump into R129

    With enough time and ingenuity ( Enginuity? ) you can do anything you like . I had a C36 engine put into a 2.6 Auto 190 and mated it to a Getrag . It transformed it completely. Good Luck .

    C63 Brake Fluid for trackdays?

    (As it's the Xmas season ).......... Oh no it won't ! A litre of fluid is £60 , a set of pads are less than £200 , say 2-3 hours to fit and bleed which is not difficult to do and can be done by anyone with modest mechanical knowledge or a decent independent will do them inside 2 hours ...

    C63 Brake Fluid for trackdays?

    :doh::wallbash: You may find that they fade you into a wall. A combination of track pads AND fluid is a must . Track pads have a backing on them that stops the heat transfer into the fluid . I use AP Racing 660 fluid . Make sure you purge ALL your old fluid . Then you need to bed in...

    300e brake upgades

    SLK 55 calipers are the top upgrade but will need slight machining to make them fit . I think that a lot of people underestimate just how good a set of properly maintained M-B brakes are . A caliper rebuild kit , EBC greenstuff pads and high temp fluid is probably all you will need in reality .
