I always wondered what was in there, I'll have to look at the MW pump and see if I can some up with something special. 15* is stock for 60x?

I have a late model AutoXray 6000 OBDII scanner that has says the software will work with 1990 MB onboard boxes, but I think I would have to make my own interface plug to be able to hook up to the car side plug. Any idea if there is a commerical pig tail I can buy off the self?

I'm trying to understand how you would use the IP lock tool mentioned above to check the timing? I'm assuming the lock tool prevents the IP from moving when it removed, wouldn't that prevent the pump from moving while you are spinning the engine to get it to rotated to the right spot?
So does the lock only fit when the tang is in the dead middle of its port, so you rotate the engine, then rotate a degree see it it fits, and go back an forth until you can insert the tool? the first guy to respond on the AB light rental said he hasn't got his tool back yet. Waiting to hear back from the second guy.

Now remove the lock, rotate engine twice (720°) back to 14.0°, leave the crank alone, and adjust the pump until the lock tool engages with the pump at 14.0°. Tighten the pump down, REMOVE the lock, now turn the crank twice again and verify that it's still at the same 14.0° (±0.5°). It's a slower procedure using the lock, and if you forget to remove it before either turning the engine or adjusting the IP via the turnbuckle, you can damage things. The A-B tool is faster and eliminates any risk. It's the 10x cost differential that steers folks to use the lock tool. Then again, the mirror method is free, and probably accurate within 1 degree (maybe less). |

Also since I'm waiting on parts and tools to finish the timing measurement attempt, I worked on trying to trouble shoot the cooling issue some last night.
To keep the engine idle issue/fix and cooling issue/fix seperate so that other folks can later easily find solutions to thier cooling problems, I'll try to keep the two problems in their respective threads (have you ever tried to search these forums? Good titles and staying on topic would help a TON!!) Here is my 1990 W124 300D 2.5 Turbo Cooling Issue thread.

FYI in case you didn't know, you can use Google if you put site:peachparts.com after your search terms. You'll get results from here only and can use Google's more complex queries.

OOooo KOOOOWEL! I did not know that, I'll definately have to try that out. I always feel bad when guys like GSXR are having to constantly repeat themeselves to every wet behind the ear greenie (like myself) that comes along.

I made a crude lock tool when I removed my IP. I took a brass hose barb fitting and cut it down (cut off the threaded part). I used a hacksaw blade to cut a slot in one end. The other end was a nice fit in the ID of the inspection port plug. I got the tang centered, put in my hose barb with the slot engaging the tang, and screwed the port plug in gently to hold it all together. Worked like a charm, but I did it because I was pressed for time. If you have time to buy/rent/borrow the right tool that is undoubtedly the way to go.

Worked on the car quite a bit over the last few days. I'm wating for a new crank breather hose to replace the brittle one. I upgraded the fan clutch and fan to the 606 version and also replaced the fan belt and water pump. Pics and details of that effort are in my :
1990 300D 2.5 Turbo overheating thread A side benefit once I removed the the water pump pulley seeing the timing was WAY easy. Problem was I have an oil leak in the area and a lot of crud was built up in the area. Is this a common leak point? Should I worry about this? I'm thinking this leak is a slow weeper either on the oil pan gasket, or the front crank seal. How hard of a job is it to replace the oil pan gasket with the motor in the car on a 602? Is it even possible? The leak is slow enough that it doesn't even puddle or drip on the drive way, but this one section of the block and alternator carrier is really gunked over. I almost wonder if the leak is where the dip tube goes into the block? This is the only place that the car currently leaks, until this: Oil spitting due to the broken breather port Timing was a snap with the fan, pulley and radiator out of the way Now here is the good news, my Timing chain was DEAD on, so I can at least cross the timing chain stretch question off of the list. The bad news is after checking on the inejector timing, I don't know what to check next except to pop test injectors!?! Here are some pics: Here are some pics of the cam timing mark lined up: From the front From the top Here is the timing marker on the crankshaft pulley From the front From the side So in the next day or two, the injector timing lock will show up and I'll try to evaluate the injector pump timing.
