Parting out 84 300SD 126

I've gotten a number of parts out already for my 83SD, but I do have some leftovers, so let me know via PM if you need something. I don't quite have enough space to keep an entire parts car in boxes....

84sd donor car for 83sd

My oil cooler line broke and according to the local wrench then engine is toast, so I'm parting it out now for my new 83sd, and for anyone who needs a specific part on the forum.

I've taken out...

a 55-gallon plastic drum fit right in the backseat of my 84 300SD... not sure if they're smaller somehow than the steel ones, or if your body style is a bit smaller. I thought of using 40-gallon...

add some armor

Seems that all metal oil cooler lines at least might be better than metal ones with rubber ends that sit next to an AC belt. If you have a model like mine, there is enough clearance to strap...

reports of demise misunderestimated?

Well, after all your posts and other threads, I decided to try the starter and battery tests. Nothing seemed to work, and then I smacked the battery contacts with a hammer just for kicks. Then she...

Donor found... now what?

I went out and found an 82 300SD donor vehicle, but it's not exactly in good shape itself. $500, engine seems to leak more oil than mine did, and (surprise, surprise) the oil cooler line is nearly...

no crank

I tried and tried to get the 27mm bolt to budge, but no deal. All I get now when I try the ignition is a loud "chk." I'm assuming this is the death knell. If no one has any other hopeful ideas, I'll...

Clarify this please:

Does the starter fail to turn the engine, whatsoever?
I believe it starts to crank, but it only does it once or twice and then quits.

diesel question; milwaukee mechanics

The car died on WVO initially (when the cooler line broke), but I switched over and it was idling for about 20 minutes on diesel before I took it out of the garage. That should have been enough time...
