Hi all
So brought a project few weeks back hopefully not one I will regret.... My first dip into the world of 90's built like a tank Mercs, after owning a GL, so this is only my second Benz and my first to get my hands dirty on...
engine harness:
I believe she needs a new engine harness part of it has been replaced, injector cables look new. However after checking some other cables I noticed they are deteriorating, after a quick look I believe they lead to the MAF sensor and throttle body, didn't want to disturb them too much, till I have a solution, which I guess is paying the stealer A LOT of £££££££, last resort!!!!!
So sourcing one from somewhere or getting one made up??
Engine surge:
After along trip i noticed the engine was surging when idling so while I was admiring the V12 I thought I'd clean the MAF sensors no luck, I guess next step will be look for any vacuum leaks, anything else i should be looking for??
Wheels..
Even though this has been one of my dream cars. After looking at it for a few days I come to the conclusion I don't like the way she sits.
It needs bigger and wider wheels. Ideally getting the wheels flush with the fenders. I know a lot of you would suggest keep it stock and enjoy the ride, it's just my preference.. any advice on sizes would be great.
GRILL
IT NEEDS A NEW GRILL, CAN'T SEEM TO FIND ONE ANYWHERE!!!
Any and every help would be great.
Thanks
