Fixing Up An Old Diesel-Powered Mercedes

You can also turn on subtitles for explanations on what I'm doing throughout the video. You can view the transcript itself at the bottom of the description This is a 1975 Mercedes 240D with a 4 cylinder diesel engine. The car has been off the road for a while, and barn-stored for that period. Fortunately, the previous owner periodically went out and fired up the engine. So albeit not roadworthy, it technically runs and drives. This car now belongs to a friend of mine and I was asked to make the car reliable again, and on top of that, I ended up cleaning out a total of 21 dead mice. Unfortunately, they left a stench that I'm not sure can ever be removed (Although maybe an ozone generator). There's plenty more to do on this car, but it's ready to putt around. Maybe you'll see more on it. Chapters- 00:00 - Intro -All I really knew about the car when I got to was that it ran and drove onto a trailer, and it's been sitting in a barn for a long time. It REEKS of rodent urine. 02:20 - Replacing the V-belts 04:26 - Oil Change & other checks 07:30 - Replacing some bulbs 11:38 - Replacing the brake hoses -Driving the car back to my garage, the brake pedal started sinking way down to the floor. The brakes had overheated themselves. The rubber hoses swelled up and restricted the fluid flow, maintaining pressure on the brakes. 18:43 - Cleaning up 33:41 - Reassembling the dashboard/heater controls - it looks like someone pulled all this apart to figure out why the heater fan wasn't working. I did some diagnosis and it seems like the fan motor itself is done for. Thats a dreaded job on this car, and most, so I just put things back together for now. At least there's still some heat/defrost from natural airflow. 38:47 - More cleaning 41:03 - Fixing some loose parts in the gauge cluster 43:59 - More cleaning & washing 46:15 - Patching up the rusted off muffler 50:36 - Servicing the transmission 53:37 - Adjusting the valves 56:47 - Servicing the air and fuel filters 1:00:44 - Revisiting the blinkers 1:01:30 - Finishing up and finding a grand total of 21 dead mice 1:04:40 - Winston the cat
