Of all the upgrades for diesel engines that we offer on this site, I believe changing over to Monark injector nozzles will give you more performance improvements for the money that any other single product. From our own diesels to the glowing reports we hear from our customers - you may have a hard time believing just how true this claim is until you experience it first hand! And Monark nozzles are probably the last of a breed. Yes, they are still manufactured in Germany...
Recently, I set out with the goal to provide our customers with all the resources they would need to troubleshoot and repair the brake systems on their own cars. As your favorite Benz ages brake problems will arise and they can sometimes be difficult to diagnose. Since brakes are a safety related system it is also VERY important that any repair work be done properly and with great care.
If you have been reluctant to overhaul your worn and inefficient Bosch fuel injector nozzles because the job is too difficult or too costly then think again! For approximately the same cost as rebuilt Bosch fuel injectors you can purchase this kit to rebuild them yourself in your garage and get better performance to boot! Works on all 617 engines 300D, 300CD, 300TD and 300SD from 1975 to 1985.
You are looking at the worlds first production diesel mechanical fuel injector bench tester available in the U.S. for under $200. These are built at the Mercedessource shop to control quality and production demands. This bench mount pop tester will allow you to economically test the spray pattern and fine tune (balance) your fuel injectors at home. With the injector fitting included it will work on all Mercedes diesels from the early 1960s up to 1993. This includes chassis 110, 115, 116, 123, 126, 201 and 124 and models 200D 220D 240D 300D 300CD 300TD 190D 300SD 300SDL 350SD.

Kent is often asked what are the most important SEALANTS AND ADESIVES to have around for your Benz. These are his top 5 picks. This kit includes the following 5 products:
Here is what Kent says about these wrenches: " I am very picky about the "feel" and "fit" of my combination wrenches. Some are just too smooth and slippery, while others just don't feel good in your hands. Then their are those who have real thick heads that make it hard to get on close quarter nuts and bolts (like Kobalt). A lot of the real cheap wrenches don't fit tight on the heads, thus causing rounding off of the heads (like a lot of them)!!
This is not a normal nut. On the face it has a special hard plastic nylon seal. When this seal deteriorates you may see evidence of power steering fluid seeping out of the bottom the the adjustment locknut (located on the top of the steering box). Kent recommends if you are planning to loosen your locknut to adjust the play in your steering box that you purchase this new nut ahead of time. Fluid leaks are not fun!
Carry these two pieces in your diesel for road side emergencies. Not uncommon for an injector return hose to fail when you are out on the road. This hose will fit most all Mercedes diesels from 1969 to 1995 that use rubber return hose connected to the fuel injectors 220D 240D 300D 300CD 300TD 300SD 190D 300SDL 350SD and 350SDL. NOT EXACT LENGTHS. One piece measures from 15 to 18 inches and the other piece will measure from 6 to 8 inches.
5 pieces 11" to 16" long misc ends from our cutoff stock. From 1/8 inch to 3/16 inch diameter. These can be used on various vacuum connections. Maybe some small fuel hose included. Yes, Kent does use fuel hose on vacuum systems as it will not swell and rot like regular rubber vacuum hose.
PLEASE NOTE: Not to be used for diesel fuel injector fuel return hoses!!

This is a very handy smaller torque wrench to have in your tool box. It will do fuel injectors but is not quite big enough to torque wheel lug bolts. Range is 5 to 80 foot pounds. To order a 1/2 drive torque wrench CLICK HERE.
Nice set of heavy duty pick tools with rubberized handles. They have hardened steel tips which allow for more prying and twisting with less tendency to bend the tips.
This is Kents new favorite ratchet wrench for turning engines over during service and repair. There are a number of maintenance procedures that require you rotate the engine over by hand.
