Re: [MBZ] 300D 2.5L Turbo Diesel
something shifter related. Say's it won't get all the way into park. Makes me wonder if something broke, and the neutral safety switch has the car disabled. - Original Message From: Craig McCluskey [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: mercedes [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 16, 2006 7:57:19 PM Subject: [MBZ] 300D 2.5L Turbo Diesel http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=4605490544fromMakeTrack=true Currently at $111.50, with no reserve.

It shouldn't crank if it's the neutral safety switch -- I'm thinking it's a fuel leak resulting in air in the lines. They mentioned a leaking filter. If they did run out of fuel, they haven't bled the lines or cranked it long enough. On 1/16/06, Luther Gulseth [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: something shifter related.

Re: [MBZ] 300D 2.5L Turbo Diesel
Well, since he says it turns over and the cam turns, I'd say: 1) Bad glow relay (easy to test, check for +12v at the plugs) 2) Fuel delivery problems - vac shutoff stuck down? It's pretty much gotta be one or the other, either no glow or no fuel. Not much else to go wrong - this is assuming it cranks normally and has SOME compression. Why do these deals always have to be 3000 miles away? Sheesh... I'd snag this if it were near me (and if the price stays cheap enough, which it probably won't.) :) +dm -- Date: Mon, 16 Jan 2006 18:57:19 -0700 From: Craig McCluskey [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [MBZ] 300D 2.5L Turbo Diesel http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemitem=4605490544 Currently at $111.50, with no reserve.
