I have a 1985 300ds turbo diesel and I need to remove the engine. I always work on my cars because I can't really afford to take them to a shop, but I've never removed an engine before, let alone a mercedes engine. I need to know what to do and in what order. If anyone could help that would be greatly appreciated. What I need to know is 1. how to unbolt the engine mounts (are they the allen head bolts that go through the rubber mounts?) 2. What do I need to remove, and how to remove it? (should I unbolt the transmission? or undo the driveline and how?)3. Do I need to remove anything off of the front of the engine? (The fan and shroud are already off) 4. do I need to remove fuel lines and Throttle linkage? And from where? 5 Remove the hoses from the radiator and oil cooler right? I know some stuff is obvious, But treat it like you are explaining it to someone who has never seen an engine before, so I don't accidentally miss anything small. Step by step Instructions are what I'm asking for. I know there are a lot of people out there like me who wouldn't mind helping If they could. If you could Include Pictures that would be really helpful. I know It is a lot to ask, but I'm just a broke college student who is dead in the water, and don't know what else to do. I have a 1985 300sd turbo diesel with a hole in the block, and a 1984 300ds turbo diesel that stopped running after I ran it out of fuel. I believe I can make one working engine out of the two, I just need to get the damn things out first. Thank you In advance for any help you can provide.
