This video will take you step by step through the process of using our glass polish kit with a multitool to remove those fine scratches from your windshield or rear hatch glass. It also works great for polishing the water and acid rain out of any glass, including shower doors!

How can you tell if you have a hole or leak in your exhaust system? What are the symptoms? Can the leak be patched? When will you have to get either a new center muffler or rear muffler or pipes or all three? Can you replace the mufflers yourself and what are the tricks?

Enter the dreaded “check engine” light. When it suddenly comes on it can create fear and panic in many a driver. Kent has known some people who have sold their cars cheap because they just did not want to deal with taking the car into a mechanic to get it fixed.

We love doing oil changes on these engines. The oil filter housing is right in the front of the engine with NO obstruction. The engineers were finally thinking about us!

The voltage regulator is a very inexpensive part that usually wears out between 110,000 to 130,000 miles. It is often neglected and Kent believes many alternators have been replaced over the years when all they needed was a $25 to $30 voltage regulator!!!

To many people, automotive electrical systems and testing are a big mystery. It is not as complicated as you might think.

When an old Mercedes ( or any other car for that matter ) has sat idle for over a year it can be a challenge to get it safely back on the road again. If it has sat idle for more than 5 years you may find it difficult to even get the engine running.

In this 7-minute video, Kent will explain the process and show you how to hook it up to your transmission and get a good reading. For accurac,y it is best to have the transmission warm, so take it out for 15 to 20 minutes before you hook up the gauge under your car.

B2 REPLACEMENT PISTONS ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE NEW. But you can repair your old B2, unless it is the very early type with the narrow circumferential ceiling ring.

PLEASE NOTE: As stated earlier, Kent does not cover the overhaul of the valve body in this video series. That could be another long series all by itself. He will show you how to make the K1 accumulator upgrade.

Now, for the part you have been waiting for —and perhaps the most critical. If you forget to install even a single small needle bearing or a couple of thin washers, you could encounter some serious problems.

In part three of his 722.3 video class, Kent will give you his recommendations of some tools and supplies you may need when you go to tackle this job yourself. He will also give you recommendations on additional manuals you should download from the internet. The video is 21 minutes in length.
