You deserve $150 for the set of custom tools you show just for your experience. Have you ever had a problem with the crankshaft sitting too low from main bearing wear, thus causing a leak from being imperfectly centered? On the multitude of gasoline engines I've had my hands on, I always re-surface the crankshaft and install new bearings just to avoid this problem. It's especially important to have healthy crank and bearings to avoid damage to the ream main seals, automatic front seals and the automatic front pump and bushing for the torque converter. My mantra... round and true is a good thing. It avoids leaks and preserves balance. ;-)

Kent, you sure come up with some really neat tools! My humble request would be for two tools for W126: 1. Removal tool for the engine mounts 2. Removal tool for Starter on M117 engine I guess you know why! Sincerely Peter

my 240d has a wet crank seal so this is on my list of things to do once it warms up!

Can you do a video on the front water drains in the R107. A bit confusing. Thanks
@tsitom34613 жыл бұрын
Very nice! Driving in seals with a socket is something I never liked. I always worry about the seal being cocked and then leaking.

Kent, What type of sealant do you use for the outside of the seal? Can you sell the red super sticky grease for the inside of the seal and sealant for the outside of the seal? Thanks
@Mercedessource3 жыл бұрын
Aviation permatex sealant is what I use on the outside. I no longer use the sticky grease because I came up with a new tool to install the front crank seal that guarantees not rolling the lip. The sealant is included with the kit. mercedessource.com/store/617-turbo-diesel-engine-front-crank-seal-replacement-kit

I have a 1983 280E M110 suspected rear main seal do you have any videos for this ?

@jobeppe3 жыл бұрын
I'm just asking, cant' you install the race after replacing the seal? So the race slides from the outer part of the seal not tearing the lip
@Mercedessource3 жыл бұрын
Super tight fit. That would probably be a sure way to pop that spring off on the back side.

I have a 1962 220Sb Fintail W111.012 Chassis with the M180 engine that has a leaky seal, does it also have a race that needs to be replaced? If so, do you sell those as well?
@Mercedessource3 жыл бұрын
Yes, the race and seal are almost identical ( seal is slightly smaller) but the install tools work without modification. I am working on a kit now for the 1960's 6-cylinder engines and should have it ready in about a week.
