    I didn't know glow plugs could make an engine knock like that. Thought they were more poor starting.
    Hopefully car fixed now.

    Hey Mike you, and Randy both should invest in some exhaust hoses before the fumes make you sick. Just a thought.

    Monkey Wrench Mike love the dance moves. I admit the knock of the engine and the rhythm that motor was knocking out then you started dancing to it made me loose it in a fit of giggles Mike. Love your sense of humor

    Hey Mike, tip for the future - I'd prefer heating up the engine up to operating temp and spraying some WD40 around them, then slowly turning them back and forth just in case they want to break. That's what I always do.

  • @kellyspeppers
    @kellyspeppers ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Good job on the diesel. I had a VW Rabbit diesel back in the late 70s. The engine had so bad of shaking the steering wheel would numb you hands. Plus I replaced two cylinder heads on that engine, I said never never again.

  • @whistlingdiesel
    @whistlingdiesel ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Sad, no more garage samba😁. Someone at Benzworld stated that rebuilding the injectors will improve the milage up to 45mpg (surly with constant speed of 55) but that and polishing the headlights would be the final touches...

    I had to do the same job on my BMW E39 525D Touring back in January of this year, all of the 6 glow plugs were dead and the car wasn't really happy to start with cold weather (longer cranking and awful start).
    Now with brand new glow plugs it starts like nothing ✌️

    Dude my all time favorite car I have ever owned was my 97 e300 diesel! Did you know the 97 was a 1 yr only model!? Only year naturally aspirated with the 5 spd automatic. Cool

    • @richardgreene3460
      @richardgreene3460 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The 96 and 97 E300 are the non-turbo diesels (same car)! The 98 & 99 are the turbo-diesels which have tremendous power (in comparison).

    I replaced my glow plugs on my 85 300d turbodiesel well over 200k miles. I never noticed it running any different.
    What affected it more was having the valves set. That made a difference.
    Have you set the valves on this one? I assume they are still using solid lifters. That will make it run even smoother and more economically.

    I wouldn't have waisted time testing them if I was going to change them all. My attitude would be, while it's torn down that much, replace them all. You wouldn't want to have to do it again later on. That's why I changed the timing belt on my Toyota Camry when I replaced the water pump and serpentine belt. I was already there so...
