some small nagging things...

1) I changed my fuel return lines a while back and now I cant get the primer pump to lock back down any sugestions?

2) where are the grese points on a w123, the car squeeks when I get out.

BTW it is a 83 240D

The new up greaded pump is only about $20, I would just get one as the old type is apt to start leaking if its not now.. There are NO grease fittings.

Aha...a man with a car as slow as mine. I've got an '83 240 too. Look out for 240's in the merge lane...

There are not any grease points to my knowledge...which is limited BTW.

I don't think the primer handle has anything to do with you changing the lines. Not sure but you might want to try pushing it back in the down position then unscrewing it then try locking it back in. Seems to me the one on my TD did the same thing and thats how I fixed it.

Wonder where the squeak is coming from? Have someone else get in/out of the car while you lay on the ground and try to locate it. Make sure the person who does the in/out part is female with a dress.

Cheers,

Bill
