That tearing of the nitrile gloves can be an advantage, too... When they tear, you know your barrier has been compromised. Latex tends to just puncture, and you're not always aware it's been...

Exclamation Help! OM617 manifold stud size?

What's the size of the (exhaust + intake) manifold studs on an OM617.952? This is out of a 1985 300D.

I think the thread is 10mm x 1.5, and what are the lengths?

How about this one? Autometer #2265 (http://autometer.com/cat_accessoriesdetail.aspx?vid=55)

1/8" NPT to M10x1... It's for oil pressure, but I'm sure you could make it work.

That oil line is the return from the air cleaner, isn't it? The blowby tube runs from the valve cover to the air cleaner, where the oily air runs through a separator, which drains back into the oil...

Does anybody have a vacuum shutoff valve (http://dieselgiant.com/shutoffvalve23.JPG) from an OM617 (.952 if it matters...) that they don't want? I don't care if it holds vacuum at all, so long as the...

About the vibration... did you get the flywheel (un)balanced to match the out-of-balance of the flexplate? Flywheels are normally zero-balanced, but I have read that OM617 ones are deliberately out...

My oil pressure stays pegged at 3 bar any time I've got my foot on the accelerator. At idle, it's about 1.5-1.6, and the needle twitches a little. Is the twitchy needle at idle normal, or indicative...
