  • I know I haven't posted in a while but here's a new one. I have since replaced the factory antenna with one that I took off a wrecked 300D. It now is a functioning power antenna. I also took the hood release lever from that car to replace the one that wore out in my Benz. I am thinking of going over to that same place today to see if they can figure out the problem with the tank. I believe that there is something in it preventing the car to gain speeds over 50 mph after it gets close to half tank. So I maybe taking the tank from that wrecked 300D now too. I am thinking of asking for the tries and rims too. They're not corroded or as used as mine look. Plus they have the original Michelin tires on them. I even hope that this 300D was a Turbo Diesel so I can salvage the turbo off and put it on my 4-cylinder diesel. That should solve my acceleration problem for sure. All in all this car has lasted about 25 years and it's still kickin' and I hope it kicks for a long time.
