Yeah, tried that and it immediately blew the fuse. And yes, I visually checked the wiring to the GPs - the ends of the GPs had the wire with a nut on it. Anyway to repair relays? I'll still get the new one and maybe have a spare... Thanks for the reply! Larry On 12/30/2016 12:17 PM,

Did you give a visual to make sure the plugs aren't obviously grounding out? If that looks okay I'd say pop the fuse in and give it a shot. Sometimes things just fail for no real reason... Curt Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android On Fri, Dec 30, 2016 at 10:50 AM, Larry Turner via

Swarfega is the best I've tried on skin in recent memory. Years ago GOOP was pretty good, or maybe non-diesel oil dirty hands were easier to clean? I'm looking forward to hearing from Rich and comparing myself next visit to his vast estate in the new year. Belated Christmas wishes to all! --

What's the cut off for "New" vs "old"? or is it all 602 & 603? I ask because the relay from the dealer for my '91 came with a fuse across the bottom. Thx Larry On 12/29/2016 9:21 AM, Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes wrote: It should not have a strip fuse on the new 602 and 603 engines
