Does anyone have or know where I can get the workshop manual pdf page #40-320? That would be the one that has all the information on the measurements for an alignment. I have the one for the 126 but my CD's for the 123 didn't come with that page. Manfred __

I wouldn't think it could work that way. A teleportation I would think would have to be a one to one thing. What comes out at the end would and should be exactly the same as what went in at the beginning, 100% the same 100% of the time. Otherwise you would end up with incremental errors that ev

From the ones I've seen no, since those don't seem to go into the top of the air cleaner. Even if the hose goes from the valve cover to the top of the air cleaner it would still probably not work since the 616 is shorter so the distance will be shorter. Manfred Curt Raymond via Mercedes wrote

Just didn't want you to think it wouldn't fit. Though I don't know why they decided to switch to the newer round version on the 123 and stayed with the flat thing on the SD. At first that flat one was used on all of them or so I have found other people to say. Haven't done any research of my ow

That would depend on how it was done. If your teleportation machine transplaces the same volume of air in the one place with you at your location then there is a lot less of a problem. The pressure differential in the air can be taken care of by transporting the full contents of a cylinder from

If you take a really close look at the first picture you will see that that is exactly the number on the side of it. Also has a number 717 400 00 049 or possibly 048. I think the number 717 400 is one that is on the 5 speed getrags. At least that's what I saw in looking around on other sites.
