Can anyone tell me if my 1991 300TD has one of two fuel filters?, is there an in-line filter and if so where is it?. Regards Brett

the battery had run dead, I started the car on booster and then put the multimeter on the battery.

Multimeter reading 11.7v

Well the battery is now dead, so im charging the booster ready to start it then ill check with a voltmeter.

Before I start taking out the alternator is there anything else I should check? Driving home last night my ABS light started to come on then the radio cut out when I put the blower up full, I quickly realised there was a battery issue got the car home turned it off then tried to restart but...

Sorry that's a 300TD

The alternator tension spring has snapped on my 300TE, does anyone know a part number or where I can get one. I did have a look on europarts and its coming up with this :- Febi Bilstein Mercedes Benz | Euro Car Parts UK But im not sure as that's a damper it looks like this :-...

OK, that sounds logical I just didn't want to start taking things apart without knowing where to start.

Thanks for the reply, No it dopiest run out the gauge just doesn't move when it gets below 1/4 tank and the light doesn't come on.

Hi, Just managed to buy a very nice well maintained full MB service history 1991 300TD. All seems very good apart from the fuel gauge, it works but it seems to stick when it gets below 1/4 tank. I know the reserve light works as it comes at start and the dial does go down to empty when off so I...

OK sorry 190e 2.5, to be honest I would be interested in any diesel W124. I'm clocking up a lot of miles. Regards

Looking for a half decent Diesel W124.

I am looking to sell or exchange this W123 230e engine, the engine has had a complete rebuild to an exceptional level although I can not give any warranty with the engine. I would like to either get some cash back or would be interested in any W123 related swaps. Any...

Im am going to give this a bump as I need help.

Its coming from the back of the exhaust.

Yesterday the only problem I had with my w123 was the fact that it was losing vacuum when parked, so after checking all the doors and reservoir I decided to check the pipe going to the manifold. I removed the complete air filter housing and then the rubber pipes underneath, cleaned them all up...

Updated the link.

My W123 just sailed through its MOT with one advisory, Horn. It seems like only one is working and that one isnt working very well, can I simply buy a couple of 12V horns like this and swap them over ?:- http://www.classic-car-accessories.co.uk/acatalog/12_volt_horns.html

I have noticed that there is a vacuum leak on my 230e. Everything works OK when the car is running all doors lock and unlock but when I go to the car to unlock only the drivers side opens until I start then engine then all doors open. I have also noticed that there is a hissing sound...

Just taken the vent covers off of the scuttle and all is nice and clean and rust free there but the p/s hinge area is not very nice. Time to look in the glue cabinet for a special solution, plexus ma420 is a favourite at the moment.
