G'mornin' Folks,

Yesterday I received my copy of...

"Technical Data Passenger Cars, April 1985 Edition"

Covers Models
107 as of 01/1982
123 as of 01/1982
124 as of start of production
126 as of 01/1982
201 as of 01/1982

This little book, sort of a technician's toolbox reference, has a wealth of info if you are interested in the tech data of these vehicles.....or if you are having electrical and/or vacuum problems, amoung others!!

I have not even browsed the entire book, 509 pages, but what I have found that is of interest here is...

Vacuum Line Color Codes, broken down by system i.e. Door Locks, Climate
Wireing Harness ID, and Color Codes
Shift Points of Automatic Transmissions
All sorts of Injection Pump info
All sorts of Ignition Timing info....good for Gassers
Spring/Shock data....Info on tuning suspension
Rear Axel Data.....including Differential
Steering linkage, Allignment Specs
Valve Clearances
Cylinder Bores

and way more stuff that is of interest to anyone who is seriously involved in maintaining these older Benzes....I think it well worth the $29.95 that I paid to MBUSA Classic.......

Just thought y'all would wanna know......this is not a "how to" manual, it is simply a Technician's Reference Book.....all data......no pictures.....
