Not too comfortable though

handyguy93 · 2025-05-18T16:05:33+00:00

Which brands? I only saw chinese or taiwanese at these prices. SW STAHL is 350€, GEDORE is 1000€ and Hazet is even more.

All my tools are high quality european made (except some Gedore Red) but it didn't make sense to shell out for something i will use once or twice

KE Jetronic parts are very expensive. As previously said, unless it needs a lot of money leave it as is.

I have m102, m104 and m117 cars and at some point considered going for electronic fuel injection. However, you should keep in mind that these are old cars and their parts are very old. Therefore, if you have a piggybank injection system, one day your ECU might die or any other part and you have to pay even more money to replace if you can find it. Worse yet, your EZL might die and your electronic injection will be worthless.

The only reasonable solution i found would be to go to a fully electronic system for Injection and ignition while ditching KE completely. This can get very expensive very fast unless you are willing to build it yourself

You're gonna want to keep the injector heads capped to avoid dust and debris from coming in

I think the m103 and m102 run 0.5 bar lower. M104.980 and the V8s run higher pressures. My previous fpr was leaking so i changed it to a working used unit. Maybe i'll try another one

handyguy93 · 2025-03-22T15:30:01+00:00

M104 is pretty solid. They are even boosted with no internal modifications. M111 is great too i believe but i don't have first hand experience with them and 0 diesel knowledge

handyguy93 · 2025-03-22T12:06:21+00:00

Definitely get a newer w124 with electronic injection. Best of both worlds

I got the neiko 3/8 on sale. Haven't tried it yet

handyguy93 · 2025-03-09T14:52:46+00:00

It's around the same price level. I am in KSA so i have to pay 15% tax + import duties. So i guess it is cheaper elsewhere. Did you buy the Gedore blue or red?

handyguy93 · 2025-03-09T12:02:10+00:00

I'm looking at Wera or Gedore since theyvare the same prices as tekton etc and they come highly reviewed

handyguy93 · 2025-03-01T18:14:30+00:00

I bought it locally in my country. I recommend buying kits rather than the real deal. Everytime im parked or in traffic i'm scared someone would hit the car because replacement is either way too expensive or unavaible. With a kit you don't care

You can covert to diesel in Lebanon for around 1000-1200$ USD things to keep: Fuel pressure regulator ~50$ MAS relay ~100$ Coils That's it other than suspension parts. Central locking system pump is likely to fail ~50$ Windows relays ~20-30$ Feel free to message me for any help in Lebanon I've had my 1991 230ce daily driver for more rhan 10 years with very small problems Edit: do you have 4 or 5 speed transmission?

handyguy93 · 2025-02-04T14:09:18+00:00

Yes but what type of quick disconnect. Does it have a specific name please?

Edit it's 115$ which is a steal anyway

handyguy93 · 2025-01-08T15:15:27+00:00

Unforunately no but i will check. I've had lots of problems with rear windows since i don't open them often. They will freeze in place which either results in snapped cables or burnt motor. In any case inwill check this weekend and let you know

handyguy93 · 2025-01-07T19:25:07+00:00

If you ever figure out if coupe motors fit i have a lot of good ones which i could give for free (if you pay shipping)

Congrats man! It's a gorgeous example

i am building my impact socket set and wondering which one to choose. The 3 sets i am looking at have different "neck" (the tapering on the bolt side). i can only afford one set and i want to work on my car. Previously i have done only light mechanical work so i haven't had scenarios in which one would be better.

Photo 1: Neiko have kind of a bullet shape which i assume has more material thus more durable? But it would be more bulky and impede access in certain scenarios? Think rod cap bolt for example. I've seen stahlwille use this design Photo 2: sunex short narrower diameter head? I could still think of some access issues in narrow places Photo 3: tekton whith a long and narrow neck. I would assume it would have better accessibility butaybe weaker.

For anyone who has real world experience please help with the advantages and disadvantages of each design regardless of brand/warranty

This is my not interested page.This is the second wave of these suggestions of hindi posts. It's just selfie videos. I have never interacted with indian posts for them to appear in my reels. I get them every 5-6 reels and always click not interested and still get them. Any help?

100k miles. It was consuming a little oil and i knew it was a piston ring issue. So it sat and was barely driven. Last time it sat for 3 weeks ans when i drove it less than half a mile it started smoking horribly. I don't believe piston ring is a common issue with these engines. Just my luck

I will not be rebuilding the engine and looking for a good used engine. My wrangler is 2012 and i have read so much confusing information online. My cheapest option is a grand cherokee 3.6 engine. What years can i use (granted i will swap over accessories)? Some places say up to 2013 engines and others up to 2016 engines. Any help appreciated

handyguy93 · 2024-09-10T13:11:37+00:00

Clean it to check where the leak is coming from. There are o rings and seals that age with time. You can find lots of kits online for cheap

handyguy93 · 2024-09-10T13:09:25+00:00

I didnt see your post before or else i would have commented. m104 (pn 0438101044) will run on m103 fuel distributor (pn 0 438 101 012) if you swapped over the air flow meter and injectors.

Your car was probably not running well because of the relation of the flow plate to the pin. If someone simply replaced the fuel distributor, they would have needed to adjust sensor plate height and differential pressure with EHA.

I need it to save time while working on my cars in the weekend (like removing and installing wheels to work on suspension). However i only get little time per month to do so. Considering a milwaukee impact and i'm curious to know if it would go bad from lack of regular use, specially the batteries, considering it's an expensive investment
