I replaced the Molex by an AMP Superseal Connector many years ago ... that means to replace both sides and don`t get it wrong ...

Never any problems again!

could bring a spare disc since a clutch swap is 100% doable in the middle of nowhere with just the on-board toolkit That is what I always do, when going to remote areas like North Africa without spare supply available. The additional weight in bearable. And you need the suitable spare, since there ...

This spring I was unwillingly forced to make a long term test of my chinese heater: As general practitioner I was faced with our first wave of Covid Cases at the end of february. The safest place to treat the infectious patients was a coleman event shelter in front of my office/practice with a sheat...

Sounds like a worn out clutch lining ... the Pinz is known to be there quite quick without true prior "announcements". Hydraulic failure usually results in failure to disengage! With that one can "limp" home. The good thing: if you have a new clutchkit it can be done also on a trail while its rainin...

Dont forget to check the molex connector under the crest of the air-leading-hood next to the distributer ... when this is rotten/bad contact ... you can observe the same symptoms! I replaced it by a superseal connector like that: https://www.amazon.co.uk/QISF-Waterproof-Electrical-Automotive-Motorcy...

Greetings from the Alps ... Simon

My 710 MS has indeed such a dome ventilator as well ... it was - as the MS itselve - an Yugo-Special. The idea of removing the dome in less arid zones of the earth is a good one since it is a notorious source of inleakage ... comparable with the tropical roof of the 109 Landrovers ... The removal is...

My first look would be, if one cylinder Head-Cap Seal ist broken ... they tend to leak after being sucked a little bit inside ... the motor oil drips on the exaust manifold and its a smokey mess ... not an uncommon Pinziproblem a cheap repair .... many fix the new seal on the head cap with a heat re...

To my interpretation the pressure sensor is in the main oilstream after the oil cooler, but before the oil filter ... otherwise the readings would not make much sense ... since the thermostate opens not before 83°C towards the oil cooler ...

Regards ... Simon

My oil temp sensor is under the oil pressure sensor. There you get a picture of the "outgoing" oil temperature after the oil cooler. Therefor it reacts on both: higher engine oil temperatures as well as bad cooling e.g. due to low RPM At central european conditions equal on highway as on steep mount...

24 v petrol heaters are not available anymore here over in Europe ... there are 24V Diesel from the two german manufacturers Webasto https://www.webasto.com and Eberspächer http://www.eberspaecher.com/en.html I have two russian ones in my cars, since they cost less than 50 percent of the above and a...

@Vince: they will not sell the Pinz ... although they got a brand new Bergwacht-customized VW Amarok http://www.volkswagen-nutzfahrzeuge.de/de/kundenloesungen/kunden-berichten/bergwacht-bayern.html ... the Pinz is the only car that makes the old WWII-road up to the Blaueis .... in this video you can...

Here in Bavaria SAR is called "Bergwacht" ... the Organisations tradition goes back to the 1920ies ... and is financed by public sources (health insurance/goverment). My Pinz is used as a backup for our regular Mercedes (Puch) G: 20151212_160945.jpg K800_20160214_134534.JPG K800_20160608_140344.JPG ...

be careful: often not the springs itselves are the problem but the spring cups ... due to rust they break almost invisibly ... only after removal the problem can be seen ... the Dieselsprings are a lot stiffer and lacking the progressiveness of the 710er ones and here in Europe only used for rally p...
