I desperately need help!!! I have a 1985 300TD Turbo Diesel and I just came home and I can't turn it off. I turn the key back and even take it out and the car just keeps running. i tried pressing on the STOP button near the air filter and the revs drop slightly but the car keeps running. Please help asap!!

Thanks, Igor.

    The clock in my 85 300CD will work for about 5 minutes once resetting the time and then stop. I have replaced the capacities in my other clocks. Is this likely a capacitor or something else? THANKS! Richard

  6. Alternator woes

    W123 E,CE,D,CD,TD,TE Class
    My alternator keeps frying. I've had it repaired by a reputable vendor at least 3 times now. It will last about a week and then short out again. I got tired of taking it off and putting it on every few weeks and have resorted to using a trickle charge on the battery once a week or so for the...
