Don't remember about that one but a lot of the
connectors inside the plastic parts are soldered

Tight can keep it from starting. Tight is u
The wire came loose right at the connector. It looks like someone repaired it
before since the wire has been stripped. I think I just pulled it out of the
connector. Hopefully, I’ll have a working temp gauge once I slip it back
together and tighten it down.

Yes. They are made of thin, spring-type material which has been bent to a
radius so they perform a locking function.

Are washers required under the air filter housing mounting nuts? Also, while
Messing with the main linkage from the valve cover down to the IP, I knocked
off the wire to what I believe is the temperature sending unit. Can I just take
the connector apart, re-route the wire inside the connector, a

I got the valve adjustment done and the cover back on. The engine sounds much
quieter! Most exhaust valves were WAAY loose, nearly 1.5x the amount of
clearance! Intake valves were pretty good, and none were excessively tight. The

Today, I started the process of adjusting the valves on my 1982 240D. When I
did the last one, 1981 300CD over 10 years ago, my Dad did most of the r&r of
the valve cover and linkages/vacuum lines. This one is all on me, and I hope I
