O405 throttle and brake springs

Post by Maddog »

Hi all,

I've recently purchased a 1995 Mercedes O405 and have to replace 2 springs - the first is the throttle return spring above the engine and the second is the spring under the brake pedal at the front of the bus.

Both were found snapped at one of the ends and I cant seem to find any Mercedes person / truck parts business who knows about them.

Does anyone have any knowledge of these parts to replace them? I.e. their actual dimensions, or part numbers?

Also, If someone is able to send a photo of where the brake spring is supposed to be fixed it would save a lot of confusion. (I found it hanging by one end and where the other end was supposed to be attached isn't obvious to me).

Thanks in advance!
