Re: [MBZ] rearview mirror installation, was Finnie Fun
Probably. You just need something of relatively small diameter that has a shape that will allow you to grab a hold and pull it out once the mirror is in position. I have seen a tool made of flat steel that has a small “L” formed into the end. One side of the “L” goes against the boss, the short end sticks out and pushes the spring back. Sort of like the radio removal keys in a sense. -D > On Jan 10, 2019, at 12:44 PM, Mitch Haley via Mercedes > wrote: > > Can you just use a couple of Allen wrenches of the appropriate thickness? > Mitch. > >> On January 10, 2019 at 12:16 PM Dan--- via Mercedes >> wrote: >> >> >> There’s a special tool for it as well, I believe.

Re: [MBZ] Finnie Fun
Yes, the trick with the rear view mirror spring works on any of them that use the opposing spring loaded pin arrangement. Beats the heck out of having to bang on them to get it back in the base. As for knowing what has to be done, when I get a car that’s new to me, I spend some time surveying it, making a list of issues I see that require attention. Once I do the list, I try to prioritize things and group them based on the system or location. That allows me to coordinate my parts orders and the work. For example, I coordinated cooling system hose replacement, new clamps, heater valve refurbishment, thermostat replacement and cooling system flush/fill with this approach. Saves a lot of time and effort and minimizes the potential for rework. -D > On Jan 10, 2019, at 10:18 AM, Max Dillon via Mercedes > wrote: > > The trick with the spring for the rear view mirror, will that work on later > cars like a 124? > -- > Max Dillon > Charleston SC > >> On January 9, 2019 10:04:50 PM EST, Dan Penoff via Mercedes >> wrote: >> A bunch of little detail things today.

Re: [MBZ] Finnie Fun
Not sure. They consist of a wiper on a resistance element. Since it’s submerged in gasoline I would expect it to be pretty robust. Other than some corrosion from condensation on the case that covers the resistive element everything was in good shape. In an earlier blog post I detailed removing and repairing the sender, as the pivot was stuck in place due to it just sitting for a long time in the top of the tank without being covered in fuel. I suspect there was condensation that formed in the top of the tank which caused the corrosion. After removing the sender and soaking the pivot with some Kroil it freed up easily. I don’t recall how the pivot was secured, but I didn’t try to disassemble it. I just put a few drops of light oil on it and moved it around a number of times to make sure it was moving freely. I also hit the resistive element and wiper with some DeOxIt fader cleaner. Replacing the cork gasket was a big win, too, as when I went out in the garage this morning I didn’t smell fuel. One thing I mentioned in the blog post was that the cork gasket holes, despite looking that way, were not symmetrical. I found out the hard way because I just pressed it into place and it was clearly not right. I gently removed it from the tank and used the gauge sender flange as a reference, turning it to line up the holes. They only matched exactly in one position. -D > On Jan 10, 2019, at 6:51 AM, Dimitri wrote: > > That detail stuff is fun! What was the condition of the sending unit?
