I was going to go get myself a membership to BJs and then I got thinking, how much do restaurants pay for oil? I wonder if I could buy enough at a time to get Sysco or one of the other restaurant supply outfits to deliver? Seems like that would be cheaper than BJs or Costco. Even if I couldn't get them to deliver I wonder if a friendly restaurant owner would order some for me? -Curt Date: Thu, 27 Apr 2006 22:02:07 -0500 From: "Luther Gulseth" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [MBZ] Benifit of drivinng a diesel To: "Mercedes Discussion List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-15"

Most other Mercedes diesels use less. To just change the thermostat you do not need to drain the cooling system. You may lose a few qt.
