If that is the case it might be an idea to replace the rubber fuel hoses.
Perhaps drain the tank and see if the strainer is clean, new fuel filter
could be the go. From experience bio-diesel causes all sorts of problems.

Hue,
You might check the Transmission mount and the differential mount,
before you go looking inside the engine. When you did the timing
chain, did you adjust the valves?
In my experience, and others have far more than I do, it makes sense
to do one repair at a time, then check for the s

Hi all!
So I'm doing the spring work on the fleet and have an
old 82 300d. Well the durned thing vibrates and
clanks a little more then I think it should.
I replaced the motor mounts last year (but did not
replace the little vibration damper) and it marginally
fixed the vibrations.
Anyway
Do i need to remove the tank and pull the sender?
Even though it's a wagon I don't believe you have to drop
the tank. There's probably an access panel somewhere in the
car that gives you a shot at the screw-in sender.

Suggestion. For a quick-and-dirty, plug the lines that go to the door locks,
etc., at the "t" and leave vacuum going only to the IP shutoff and (if
applicable) to the transmission. MIne's been that way for a while and no
issues.

Yes, the idle is pretty smooth, it doesn't really hunt. If anything, it may

I don't require a fuel flap lock. The trunk lock still functions, but I
don't have any spare Y's, so I just spliced in some straight hose to the
trunk actuator. She will undoubtedly be the vehicle's final owner, since
her recent history has shown a staggering propensity to flog and abuse her
car
vacuum to leak out into the anti-vacuum. I simply removed the
superfluous
actuator and its attendant Y-connectors.
So the trunk and fuel flap no longer self-lock? Feh. And why
_remove_ the flap lock anyway? Just cap it off.
