First of all, GREAT website.
I have a '83 300TDT with 236K and just aquired an '85 300TDT with 156K.
I am in the process of fixing things on the '85 to convert her to a daily driver like mine.
Engine is strong, but it has a few problems.
A/C and heat do not work. Looking through the previous owners records, everthing was replaced at 153K. (almost $2,000 worth).
She stated that within the last month, the fan will not blow unless she goes over a speed bump! and sure enough, that is the case. Even then it blows ice cold, but VERY weak.
Is this the fan motor? Blower? What should I investigate first? Also, her mechanic has bypassed the rear accumalators and installed shocks. Will this pose a problem?
Thanks and I'll be posting a bunch in the future.
