Not sure if it runs or not, will have to wait till the key shows up.

I think I could make either bungee cord or ratchet straps work and was fixing 
to walk to the store to get some then aaa called, they are about 15 minutes 
away. Usually it’s 2 hours or so before they show up so I will not mess with 
it. I need to replace the belt also so I will just take care of it all tomorrow.

CoPart doesn't guarantee anything.
They give it their 'best effort', and you get what you get. 
Like when my dealer bought his wife a Buick, and the loader driver managed to 
shove a fork through a back tire and mangle a wheel. Oops, sucks to be you, 
glad we aren't responsible for the damage we did to your car after you paid for 
it. Then a month or two later he was ordering a wheel bearing for his wife's 
car. 
Hey, that isn't the same wheel the yard monkey forked, is it?
You know, it IS that same wheel. I wonder if they hit it hard enough to ruin 
the bearing too.

Usually they're zip tied to the column until shortly before the sale, then 
stuck in a filing cabinet in an envelope with the VIN on it. I've had to check 
out keys for cars I wanted to PPI, and they never had trouble finding the keys. 
Made me hand over my driver's license in exchange for the keys. 

Maybe somebody misfiled the envelope, and they were too busy to care about a 
guy from out of town who only bought one car from them?

A whiff of "Diesel Death Gas" is like Zlyclon B.  Bad news practice.

Trailer it home, fix the glow plugs. Looks like it would be a clean car for
a long time to come with the mileage showing.

Re: [MBZ] Parts

2018-04-07 Thread Dan Penoff via Mercedes
The W124 clutches don't typically leak out like the later W140 ones. The 
bimetallic spring gets ‘tired” and fails to engage at the proper temperature, 
if at all.  You can bend the bracket the holds the spring to change the point 
of engagement, but after a while even that won’t get it to work.  Someone has 
bent the crap out of the bracket on mine, so I’m not even going to consider 
reusing it - I want to install a new one.

And mine doesn’t appear to engage at all, which is really noticeable at idle in 
traffic on a hot day.
