My new to me 1990 240 DL sedan has a number of minor problems but a few need to be fixed ASAP...like this weekend. Of course my garage was mysteriously filled with stuff in my two years in Iraq so I will be doing this in my driveway...in Chicago...in winter...after not having seen temps below 40F in two years.

The most urgent is the replacing of all the v-belts as the compressor belt broke from age so the others are sure to follow. I have seen a few references to levering this belt on instead of loosening all the pivot bolts including the two only accessed from below. Silly question but is it levered/rolled onto the crank pulley or levered onto the AC pulley? What size is the crank bolt head...I have seen reference to 22MM and 24MM.

The other gotta-do-it-now project is replacing the driver's exterior door handle. I assume it the front an rear handles are the same on the driver's-side and I can temporarily cannibalize the rear handle?

Thanks,

Mike
