I was thinking to run a can through my 240D but then I sold it. May suggest the new owner do it to see if it helps. That engine is using a quart in about 800 miles which has been ever so slowly improving since I switched to synthetic oil 30-40,000 miles ago. -Curt Date: Mon, 27 Mar 2006 07:14:18 -0800 From: Jim Cathey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [MBZ] '82 300CD excessive oil usage-update To: Mercedes Discussion List <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed > The thing is, when the engine has SERIOUS problems like it sounds like > Luther's has, there will be so much blowby that it will overtake the > oil > separator system. True, but wouldn't such blowby manifest itself with the oil filler cap off? A plume like Vesuvius? > If I had a camera with me, I'd take pictures of the air cleaner > inside.

Keep romping on it, maybe you'll be lucky. Once it is running better maybe you could take your compression numbers again. See if they changed. Ditto with your oil consumption figures. -- Jim --------------------------------- Yahoo! Messenger with Voice. Make PC-to-Phone Calls to the US (and 30+ countries) for 2¢/min or less.

Looks like an electric motor driving a little impeller pump. Mounted in a rubber shock collar for noise isolation. -- Jim
