- She's back! In this video, I'll show you my 1995 Mercedes W124 restoration process and show you how she did on her first drive! We'll go over the fuel system, replace brake fluid, replace the OVP relay, how to wire a car, how to repair the camshaft position sensor, and more! You can't imagine how much work was involved, but I'm happier than ever!

Y’all might want to keep a trap or two inside the hood to make sure you don’t have RatWagon 2: The Wrath of Mouse 😂
I watched the whole video waiting for another rat to jump out. I agree keep the traps.
100 percent there are more in that car
Delighted for you Mike, It was great to see her moving, can't wait to see the rest of the process on her and the other wagon, both are seriously keepers.
Yayyy👍
Lola sure loves her Dad, she has such a fantastic personality. I can sure see the love ❤❤❤
When I first watched this channel I thought that’s an unusual dog and now Lola is one of my favorite parts.
You got that other part from the other one and she starts.👍😊
Awesome job Mike !! It’s ALIVE !!!! Just a little more work and she’ll be looking incredible again.
soooooo happy for you mike you got it running very good job keep it up mike and lola she is so sweet
Lola sure likes to go riding 😊👍
You did an amazing job getting it to this point. You should be very proud of your accomplishment.
I'm sure these videos are going very very well and keep it going!!!!
Congratulations!!!
Sounds good Mike . Another job Lola did well . 😊
The Duck's helped.
@@edwardmartinez9459 Those ducks are quaks.
That rattle 😂😂!! It is that type of car! Keep it up Mike 😂
Silicone spray (not WD40) on the lower inside of the windows where it meets the felt will make those windows move much easier going up and down.
Mike you're awesome
The orange running lights in front come on w headlights per regulation so left front is either blown baulb or bad wiring right front is perfectly fine
I think she was having a blast riding in the back
Looks like the rear suspension might use the brake bombs (accumulators) for leveling and when they go bad they typically bounce the rear end all over the place. Pretty easy to change and not too expensive.
She is still looking fabulous and with your expertise she will be back on the road in no time 👍
Congrats on getting the "Deliverance" Wagon started and running!!!! If you find a Banjo in the "Boot" run!!!!!!!! lol.
Yes sir. Let's go for a ride 😁
Mike, you've done one outstanding job on the rat 124 benz.
Great video and work🔥👏
I’ve had great success with a vacuum bleeder that used compressed air to suck out the fluid rather than apply pressure at the master cylinder.
Lola lol loves rides in the car
Mike , I noticed that when you started the wagon the oil pressure gauge went right to the top at 3 bar before the engine started ! might want to check that out
Hellow Mike an Lola good to see you both good luck with benx
She sounds just fine. 😊👍
Good morning sir. Good to see you again 😊👍
I love your dog!! She has the best demeanor!!
Great work mike. The fact the rev counter was bouncing when you were cracking it means the crank sensor worked so had done a good job with that. And my theory on the fuel pump relay perhaps you have a bad fuel filter so the pumps are struggling and drawing more current hence the relay being hot and the pumps noisy
Also on the oil light my guess it is probably a wiring issue if you notice the pressure gauge pegs immediately before you even start the car
Great info. Thanks!!
looks awesome in black. black is king.
Very happy for you Mike, Sharing the Video 😁
I think she will drive just fine 😊
Just randomly watching the video and was like that building is familiar.... then you drive right by my brothers house lol.
Nice
Good work mike!
Congrats!🎉
Great job Mike!
Great video 👍You should make a full detail video showing everything removed and cleaned
That duck quacks me up.
@21:54 Okay, this car doesn't like "peasant fuel". 😉
Great job mike that's a big win regards wayne
Hoopty do!!🎈🎈🎈
Congratulations MWM!l
That was a lot of repair of damaged wiring harnesses. I wasn’t sure if you could fix it yourself, but you once again amazed me!
Very cool.
Peace,
DrRick
I would get that electrical connector and wiring you had trouble with from any and all 1995 Mercedes Benz's. You're bound to find a good used one! That's a nice Station Wagon/Estate.
Alright work in progress but great job Mike
Awesome video Mikey, I was just smiling ear to ear on that ride around the block. Lola the second technician looked majestic on the back seat. Man that wagon is quiet. When you sort the self levelling hydraulics on the rear suspension you'll be impressed by the superb ride. Can't wait 'till you give the old girl a good clean up. 👍❤😎
Good job Mike 😎😎👍👍persistent paid off!!
Looks like you and your dog, reminds me of a movie...oh that's it Driving miss lola. Or Daisy..lol😅
Another great video
Looks like you had a Great Day Mike. Glad to see the Rat Wagon going down the road under her own power.
Nice work Mike, it is good that you can change parts from one Mercedes to the other to fix the problem 🤗
You did a great job on the soldering and it will last
Be safe and be careful 😊👍🙏
Great job Mike! Glad you got er runnin again.
I owned the 96 E320 for years and I can tell that the valve train noise you get is _not_ healthy at all. The engine is supposed to be butter smooth and hum with no mechanical noise. It actually doesn't even sound like a normal engine, it just hums. Only when you floor it and at upper revs it starts growling a bit. If there is any engine vibration you still have one cylinder missing. I had a similar issue at 200k miles and it was the spark plug noise suppressor in cyl 1.
well done
Nice to see that wagon community im also building a t124 with m120 v12 engine
Awesome. Nice job on getting it running again. Keep up the great work.
Yea great job
YEAH ! 🎉
Mike. Just fixed my 96 E320. Check if the fuel fitting allow gas to go to the fuel rail. Sounds like fuel starvation
Congratulations Mike, you legend!
Wild guess at 21: sediment from the tank may have gotten to the pump
Great job. Love this car.
Man there’s a lot of cool old houses in your neighborhood eh mike?
Excellent job Mike!
Good job Mike!!
I been helping a friend with a 97 Pontiac, it’s been a bit of a bear to work on, so I feel ya when it feels like taking steps back.
Where’s the other duck???
Bravo !!! Its good that you persisted and got success !! Good for you !!
runs great mike you are a great wrench
Valve tap can be the oil rail used to drip oil onto cam lobes.
They get gummed up and may not be flowing enough to keep up with lifters.
Maybe a good oil change would have some Mobil 1 synthetic and a nice filter from wix might help it?
Way to go Mike 👍
I just literally watched the other 2 latest videos on these. Love these since i own two, hope you'll find a s124 with a diesel engine and a manual tranny😊
so happy you got her running and driving! look forward to more.
Benzo cracks me up 😂
Hi Mike I think these wagons are really nice and yes cool too I wished I could find one seriously you a Loyla had a great ride there will be some little fixies amazing working job on the car so cool you have a great day and enjoy the day and week super video😊
You should join the power tour using the white benz
Great job mike. Im poud of you. You make it❤💯👍💪
I want a wagon Mike!
Keep it up Mike !
I think as long as the brakes have been bled the brakes will be good 👍
Is that a diesel busted engine or a regular gas busted engine sounding like that... Lol... I kid Mike, I kid I kiiid... I know you worked hard and long for you and us viewers so thanks and congrats! Closer and closer to the goal...
So much options on yours haha , mine in France is a German import , not even have power windows haha
Very nice 👍
Good job Mike I can’t believe you brought that back to life. Love your videos keep them coming. Oh and please don’t tell me you are down to only one duck 🦆
Yea..what happened to the other duck??
I guess this is a win for getting it started and running. Parts seem to be hard to get but hopefully you'll be able to follow through to the finish line.
Very nice car I like it
Awesome job Mike, love watching you and Lola bring back these wonderful gems!....Much love stay up and free brother......✨️💥👋
U have reaffirmed my decision to sell my 2004 clk. They r great cars for a few years….
Love you dog 👍👍😅😅my Rottweiler is 13,8 year old love you video's ❤👍👍Greats from the Nederlands 😅
Thank you! Lola says hello!!
You know? Several years ago there was an infomercial that was selling these abrasive things that you put in place of your pads and they would resurface your rotors, I thought it was a pretty cool idea and would prob be perfect for your wagon in its current state, or any car that sits for an extended period of time. Love the video Mike!
try replacing the SLS spheres if the suspension is hard
Mike is the Disco Inferno still smoldering?
Curious if you got it going
Monkey wrench Mike..snatching defeat from the jaws of victory...lol
Where's Benzo's girl? Is she ok Mike? Congratulations on getting the Rat Wagon on it's first drive!!
Good job mike that's a good looking wagon.
Mike you did it you're the man can't wait to see more of this car
Congratulations 🎉on your success to make that estate runs smoothly....welldone
Your the Mercedes whisperer
Congrats Mike! That is so cool! Your Copilot Lola sure enjoyed the ride!
I can't wait for the next video on the Rat Wagon!
Mike by the looks of it, it would be much better if you install a new alternator.
Awesome 🎉
Got a jeep I been getting ready to sell and I charged ac worked great went back to add little more and boom empty lol
