> While I realized that this is not the best place for a benz question, > Hi, Don't know much about the Benz diesels in particular, but I know some guys who do. Look for an interactive forum for Mercedes Benz owners. there you'll find a guy named Tim, who goes by the handle "The Warden" who is a memeber on the Ford diesel site too, and he's a Benz expert, but he's just one of many over there. Don't panic. It's almost certainly still a good engine and driveline. In any diesel I know anything about, that would be a fuel starvation problem, and is caused by fuel pump failure, injection pump failure, injector failure, or a resriction in the fuel system or air intake. Good luck, I know you'll run this one down quick. > here goes- > > I have an '82 300td [wagon] with 239,000k miles on it. > > Just bought it last week and got the paperwork done so I can start driving > it > this week. > > I ran around Savannah[GA] here with it several days- Ok.
