Pictures of installing this kit on a 1986 300SDL
Here are some pictures of installing this kit on my car: - Photo 1 shows the location of the EGR on the OM603 engine.
- Photo 2 is the location of the 3 bolts that hold the EGR to the engine. Bolt 1 is a 7/16"
bolt (too big for 10mm; too small for 11mm). Bolts 2 & 3 are 6mm hex socket head bolts.
- Since these bolts attach to exhaust components, I started with a bit of penetrating lubricant on each bolt first.
- When you remove Bolt 1 from the exhaust manifold, don't worry about dropping the nut on the back side of the clamp, its attached. Take the bolt all the way out and expand the clamp to remove it. Photo 3 is a close-up of the clamp.
- Make sure your Allen wrench (or socket) fits Bolts 2 & 3 very securely (you don't want to strip them) and remove each bolt. See photo 4.
- Photo 5 shows the area with everything removed....to be continued...
