[MBZ] O/T PTO Electric/MAgnetic Clutch

2009-09-11 Thread Peter T. Arnold
The Electo-Magnetic clutch on my Husqvarna tractor is acting up. It will engage once when cold and run fine for about an hour (As long as it takes to cut my lawn). If I disengage when hot, it will not reengage. It's probably FUBAR. Cost it about $150, Rusty doesn't sell them ;-( Does this

Hi Don, How did the brake shoes look? I'd read that since they are only used when the car is stationary (hopefully) they tend to last a very long time - I'm curious because my '91 300D has too much emergency brake travel that needs to be adjusting. Hopefully it's not the shoes. TIA

If I disengage when hot, it will not reengage. Does it have a shim-adjustable magnetic gap? Measure the operating current when cold, and when hot. Measure the inductance, too. (OK, the latter is not particularly easy.) -- Jim ___

Hi Allan, You wrote Only lasted 2 years How did they fail? I'm rebuilding a pair of front W123 calipers right now and they are very simple. A metal cover that pries off, rubber seal and rubber o-ring - put new ones in (after coating with brake fluid) and everything falls into place.

Excellent info, fact-based decision making is the way to go. In my opinion, used car prices are still depressed, so I don't think this C-F-C program had much of an impact at all on the used car market. Sure, some useful running cars were destroyed, and I think this was a form of corporate welfare
