This is one cleverly designed tool. Could not have done it better myself. I actually use to make a couple different types before I found this one. If you have ever tried to remove a radiator hose corroded to an alumium housing you know what I am talking about and you will love this tool. Great when changing radiator hoses, especially the short hose. 8 inches in length.
It will get those stuck radiator hoses loose and off in seconds...
I like this - permanent - threadlocker because it is super strong but can still be removed with a heavy handed breaker bar. This is a very large bottle for the price and is a must have for Mercedes diesel owners. I use it anytime I am doing major repair work on an engine or transmission. Great for front crank bolt, cam bolt, torque converter bolts, injection pump mounting nuts, front engine accessories, brake caliper bolts, front suspension, etc. Anything that you can just not afford to come loose.
This removable thread locker is probably the best that I have used. It has the best sealing cap and cures rapidly and reliably when confined between metal parts. Use it to lock threaded fasteners, nuts, bolts and screws from loosening. Extremely important in critical engine and suspension parts. This is the removable type (meaning that it can be easily removed with hand tools). Comes in small .20 Fl oz. bottle great for most small jobs.
Excellent for all work around diesel engines to prevent vibration failure and breakdowns. If you need the red more permanent type CLICK HERE.
This permanent thread locker is probably the best that I have used. It has the best sealing cap and dries hard in 20 to 60 minutes. Use it to securely lock threaded fasteners, nuts, bolts and screws from loosening. Extremely important in critical engine and suspension parts. This is the permanent type (meaning that it is possible to remove only when applying heat to 450 degress F - with propane torch) or a very heavy breaker bar. I like to use this one on brake caliper bolts as it is such a critical bolt.
Excellent when retaining bearings and bearing races, freeze plugs, rocker arm and main bearing studs, etc. Can fill gaps up to .007 and assures positive controlled locking.
Fits only 1975 to 1976 300D. Mounted under the dash by steering column. Good used tested glow relay. When this unit fails the glow plugs will not come on at all. Pick up a spare if you have one of these models are new are getting more and more expensive.
Fits all 5 cylinder turbo diesels from 1978 to 1985. Believe it or not these do go bad! If you live in the rust belt (ie salted roads) the lower alternator mounting bolt can actually seize in this bracket. When that happens the only way you will be able to remove your alternator is by cutting the bolt with a saws all and metal blade. Then you will need a replacement bracket like this.
I like to use plastic inline filters to monitor the flow and quality of the fuel (yes you can even check for air in the system). The filters that have proven best for this application are Mercedes diesel pre-filters with brass insert ends for greater strength at the nipples. These filters do the job but are only available for 5/16 or 8 mm fuel hose. I have solved that problem by adding an alcohol resistant and very tight hose spacer on the end of each nipple. This in effect will allow you to use 3/8 inch fuel hose without deforming the hose or allowing leakage. These filters have the 90 degree nipple to allow you to fit it into tighter places.
We have recently been getting more requests for product catatogs. We decided to deliver. Our first product catalog specific to SVO kits and products is finished and ready to ship. This will outline all our different conversion kits as well as list individual upgrades you can make to an existing conversion. It will also show you individual components you can purchase if you want to build your own system.
The other buyers guides we are currently working on are Diesel Engine Performance Products Guide and Top Mercedes Weekender Projects (key jobs you can do at home on a weekend). Stay tuned for more to come.
These 3 illustrated manuals will help you quick start the process of converting your Mercedes diesel to run on free fuel.
With diesel fuel approaching $5.00 per gallon you cant tell me you are not interested in this subject. I know you may have lots of questions. To begin you must decide if you really want to do this!
If you have been contemplating either converting your current Mercedes diesel to run on free vegetable oil or are considering purchasing a used diesel to convert, then I highly recommend you purchase my complete set of 4 manuals before you head out on your quest. (the 5th book pictured is our SVO product Buyers Guide and is included free of change) The information contained in these illustrated manuals and guides could save you hundreds and possibly thousands of dollars.

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.
