valve adjustment ?
I am adjusting the valves on a 300D 1981. The problem is, i cannot figure the increments they are using in my manuel. I have asked tree different people including mechanics, i have gotten three different answers. Here is the numbers. I am used to thousands. Intake: 0.10mm-o.0039in. exhaust:0.30mm- 0.0118. Could somebody convert this to the closet thousands, so i can use my feelers gauges, that i understand. Thanks

Yago,
0.0039 in ~ 0.004 inch (intake) 0.0118 in ~ 0.012 inch (exhaust) I like to use go and nogo gages, therefore I use 0.003" and 0.013" for go gages and 0.005" and 0.015" for nogo but I use 0.014" for nominal on exhaust. And I keep the go gages on the loose side. P E H |

Hey,
Does it matter which make of vehicle were talking about here? Turbo or non turbo? Hot or cold adjustment? Danny

Why don't you guys go nuts and spend the $5 bucks on a set of metric feeler gauges?

If you are going to maintain a MB the easiest way to convert inches to mm is to go to your local parts shop, spend $2 and get a set of metric feeler gauges.
