FITS THE FOLLOWING: 110, 115, and 123 chassis, 1965 to 1979 4 cylinder diesel engines with series (looped style glow plugs installed. WARNING: Be sure to check that your glow plugs have not been changed to the parallel (pencil) fast glow type.
Glow plugs do not last forever. I have found they generally need to be replaced about every 2 to 3 years for peak performance. If your diesel starts hard when cold, or starts but runs rough for 30 to 60 seconds before smoothing out, or the glow dash light flashes right after startup, then it may be time to replace the glow plugs. They should be replaced in sets unless you have the odd failure of just one fairly new plug.
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:
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!
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.
New MONARK Fast heat glow plug designed to replace the series loop tip style glow plugs that were installed in all non-turbo diesel engines up to 1979. These have the large thread built in so they will install directly into the older heads. You can purchase this glow plug separately or in any number you need. Just change quantity in your shopping cart.
If you own an early 4 cylinder diesel then this is a must have diesel engine kit! This glow plug upgrade will do three things that will put a smile on your face: 1. Your engine will start faster and cold idle smoother. 2. Your glow plugs will last longer. 3. If you should burn out one or two glow plugs your engine (if healthy) will still start!

RED WHITE AND BLUE SPECIAL - ON SALE THRU JULY
FITS All 108, 109, 110, 111, 112, 113 chassis that use the little short fuse in one or two holders. Have you been having electrical problems in your older chassis Mercedes? Have you been trying to find a source for that little short fat 25 amp fuse? Maybe you have taken the fuse box cover off and wiggled a few fuses and it has solved the problem for a while. You probably noticed corossion on the tips of the old aluminum fuses. Who ever designed these old fuses did not get a good education in dissimilar metal corrosion. You do not put aluminum up next to copper - add in moisture and heat and expect to not have corrosion problems.
Fits the following, All Ponton, 110, 111, 112, 113, 108, 109, 114 and 107 chassis prior to 1973 with point ignition. This includes 4, 6, and 8 cylinder gas engined cars. I believe that installing the Crane Electronic Ignition in your pre 1973 Mercedes Benz is absolutely the best upgrade you can make to your old classic. Elimination of the contact breaker points is the key to this modification. In its place Crane uses a optical trigger with a light beam that is broken by a rotor that has small slits in it. There are no points to burn, wobble, corrode or adjust. Along with the optical trigger an electronic ignition module is used to boost the intensity of the spark across the sparkplug electrode. You will be amazed at just how well this unit works.
