Heat shrink tubing is very handing to have if you are doing any wire connections or splicing. This tubing can go over the splice or solder joint and when heat is applied from a heat gun it will shrink right down tight to the joint and protect it from shorts and corrosion.

Fits chassis 116 123 126 and 201 Diesels with PENCIL glow plugs, from 1978 to 1989. This little strip fuse is located in the Glow Plug Relay and can sometimes be the cause of your glow plug problems. Even if it appears to be good, we recommend that you physically remove it and inspect it for cracks or breaks before you replace the Relay! Sold in a 2 pack.

Application: Fits all 5 cylinder diesel engines 300SD from 1978 to 1985 and all 300D, 300CD and 300TD from 1980 to 1985 with pencil glow plugs. We have been so impressed with Monark Products that we have recently begun using their glow plugs. They are actually one of the last quality glow plugs still made in Germany. Even Bosch now makes their glow plugs in France, Turkey and other locations in Europe. Now don't get me wrong - Bosch is still a good product. But these Monark glow plugs are superb. They are built with the same materials and have the same specifications as the Duraterm pencil plugs. Even comes with 5 high quality locking nuts for the wires.

Cleaning out your glow plug holes from excess carbon (coke) can increase fuel economy and will extend the life of your glow plugs. This important regular maintenance procedure is commonly neglected and will lead to rough starts, smoke at startup, decreased fuel economy, and engine shake.

Bosch rebuilt Alternator fits 1978 to 1985 300SD and 1982 to 1985. If you have wanted to order one but did not have or want to pay for the core then we have one left in stock. You are welcome to purchase it with no core charge and no need to return your old alternator.

PLEASE NOTE: DOES NOT come with pulley or fan. You must use those from your existing alternator.

This is the first release from Kent Bergsmas new Advanced DIY Mechanic Series of repair manuals. This printed and wire bound guide will teach you everything you have ever wanted to know about how your pre-glow system works, how to quickly diagnose faults, how to repair and replace failed parts, how to prevent further problems, and how to upgrade a sluggish glow plug system.

The manual is printed in an 8.5 x 7 inch size and is 42 pages in length with 80 drawings, photos and illustrations. Knowing that this manual will be handled many times we have added a clear plastic front and back cover to minimize dirt and grease contamination. It is also printed on heavier 32 lb. bright white stock paper. Table of contents include:

IMPORTANT NOTE: We do not sell replacement antenna masts by year and model. We have run across too many problems with confusion, interchangeability, and previously swapped antennas. We sell a SMOOTH TAIL mast and a TOOTH TAIL mast. Smooth tails were used on most of the power Hirschmann antennas up to the early 80's and tooth tails were used on the later masts. For you to order the proper one you must partially remove your current mast and inspect. Is the white plastic tail more or less smooth or does it have teeth in it? The one describe here is the smooth style. CLICK HERE to view the tooth style.

This relay provides the delay function on your wiper motor. If your wipers are not working in the first postition on you switch it may mean this relay is bad. It is located behind your instrument cluster up close to the firewall on all 123 chassis. On 126 300SD and 380SE it is located inside the fuse box. BRAND NEW KAE relay. Also fits late 107 380SL and 560SL.

Looking for a solution to solve your 114 115 116 123 or early 126 chassis power antenna problems? In my humble opinion the original power antennas on all 1985 and older Mercedes are justing getting too old to mess with anymore. I have tried myself to rebuild them only to have them fail again in another area. You can send them out for professional overhaul but that is expensive. Unless every electrical and mechanical part inside is replaced problems may return. New original exact replacements are no longer available.

This is my favorite set of tweezers for helping to hold small parts in place for assembly. The wide ones are particularly helpful when a second hand is needed to hold a small bolt or screw in place. Comes with seven different tweezers as shown. Good for car work. Not good for pulling hair!

If you are looking for an inexpensive way to test the electrical circuits on your Mercedes here is a good option. This tester reads both AC and DC voltage, DC current, resistance, and transistor, diode and battery test. Features automatic zero adjust, overange indication, and low battery indicator. Easy to read LCD readout and comes with 32 inch long test leads. Great for testing battery drains and glow plugs.

Not only does this set include almost 100 pieces but it includes metric sized allen (hex) bits and even an attachment to remove a wing nut! How cool is that? Most kits don't contain metric sizes. There are probably enough screwdriver bits in this kit to last you for a very long. Comes in nice molded red case.

If you want Bosch here is a fantastic price on a set of five pencil style glow plugs! These are the Bosch Duraterm glow plugs. These also work on 1980 to 1983 240D (you will just have a spare plug!) These will NOT work on 1979 and older non turbo diesel engines. These plugs are designed to handle more heat for longer periods of time without burning out (similar to our Monark design)

Good used working passenger side rear door power window regulator with working motor.

Excellent used driver's side rear window regulator and motor in good operating condition. This mechanism was replaced in a car probably 2-3 years before the car was wrecked. So it is in almost like new condition!

Good working alternator for twin belt operation applicable to the 617 turbo diesel in 1981 to 1985, model 123's and 126's. 

This switch replacement kit will work on all 380SL and 560SL, all 126 chassis sedans and coupes 1981 to 1991 , all 123 chassis from 1982 to 1985, all 201 chassis 190E and 190D and all 124 chassis from 1986 to 1993.

Brand new Genuine OEM turbo diesel kickdown switch. Fits 123 turbos from 1982-1985 and 126 turbos from 1981-1985. This switch is located under your accelerator pedal, and it tells the transmission when to down shift. If the switch breaks it can stick in or on! If your turbo diesel is having a hard time shifting down or into 3rd or 4th gear definately inspect and or replace this switch.

New KAE fuel pump relay fits models listed above from 1986 to 1991. Failure of this relay is the number one cause of your engine quitting or not starting. Get under the rear of you car to hear your fuel pump run when turning on the key. It may only run for a short time and then shut off (that is normal). If it does not run at all it is either your fuel pump relay or a burned out fuel pump motor.
