Can anyone tell me what the orange warning light is for.

It comes on occasionally after about a 2o minute run

I picked up an 81 300TD wagon last weekend.
The first problem to be attacked is the cruise control. It works only after
driving for about an hour. I opened up the servo and cleaned the contacts,
everything looked ok there. I opened up the amplifier hoping I could find a

So the project which I am getting in over my head this time is the
installation of a 25 gallon axillary fuel tank.

I am mulling over a couple of installation options, and want some opinions.

As it's been getting colder, I'm noticing that my engine isn't warming
up like it used to, and I wonder if there might be something else going
on.
The temp gauge used to sit just above 175 when I got my car a couple of

I drive an '81 300D.
I was driving home from work one night recently and I quickly noticed
that I was riding cyclops.  The right low beam was out.  I flicked the

I need a bit of advice on the control arm bushings.  My control arm
bushings are totally shot, I am able to move the upper control arm up
and down a few inches with a bar.  The lower bushing also look in bad
shape.  They sag down quite a bit.  The handling is terrible ( I am

Group,
I want to test or run a speedometer on a workbench.  I am not trying
to calibrate or test any thing other than the fact that the
speedometer drive operates and the odometer gearing is in tack.  I can

The interior courtesy lights operate erratically or sometimes not at all
when activated by opening the driver's door.  The other 3 doors work fine.
Sometimes they flicker, don't come on at all, come on eventually, and other

When ever I run my 1980 450sl, fuel leaks from a component near the
back of the engine. I am not sure what this is. It is connected to the
fuel line and is located about the middle of the engine on the top
rear. Does anyone know what this is and where I can get a replacement?

I am picking up my "new" 83 300D in the morning.  It has 220.000
miles, it seems to have been well kept.  No rust, and for a Detroit
car I thought that was a good indication.  I am excited...however
don’t want her to become a money pit!

I am getting erratic performance from my climate control.  I can hear a
high pitched noise from under the dash on the passenger side, and get a
repetitive surge in the air volume.  Any idea of which part needs to be
replaced and do you have a diagram of how to replace the part?  ?  ...

I posted an earlier question about how to find cheap(er) replacement
remote-entry keys compared to the astronomical dealer price, and was
