Hi all.

Just wondered if anyone has some experience with re-filling MB clutches. I have just completed a refill (see this thread for pics, details and some instruction) for my R129, and all seems to operate as it should. But with one exception.

Should the clutch engage above 95deg AND whilst at 2000/2500RPM or does the RPM have to drop below a certain threshold to engage?

This is what happens to my rejuvenated clutch - even though 95Degs has been reached the fan fails to engage until the revs drop. Unfortunately I don't have a good clutch to compare!

Any thoughts chaps?

BTW - I have read every Viscous clutch post I could find - what great help this forum is


Cheers
Lea
