Yes, the project has been dragging on.

Well maybe I lost track of time. Seems like weeks ago you were talking about
wanting to get that car off of the lift.

Uh, no, not really sure what you are talking about. The point of the
story is the parts that were ordered for the car did not arrive. I had
a filter on the shelf for a gas car but it ended up being the wrong
filter. I am attempting to locate a filter locally. None are
available. It has nothing to do with trying to save $20.

I don't understand how you value your time. You've had the lift occupied for
however many weeks you have been trying to save $20 on a filter?

This is the fuel filter RM lists for the 450SEL:

It says it is 75MM. The filter I had on hand that I THOUGHT would work
on the car is larger. I thought these filters were all the same but
apparently there are 2 different sizes. This is the filter I probably
have (82MM)

I am REALLY wanting to get this car done this weekend and get it off the
lift so I can get the GL on the lift to replace the starter. None of the
flaps has it, basically they all mostly say go to store to order. I
discovered Napa claims they have the filter in stock ready to pickup today:

I am not keen on paying almost triple the price for an aftermarket
filter, plus when looking at the specs, they list theirs as 80MM, too
big. So I am not sure it is actually the correct one anyway. Dealer
part list is $51. I might call the dealer and see if their parts
department is open and if they have it. If they do, it will be at least
$60 I am sure. I really need to have a conversation with them about how
if they set me up with a discount that would be more in line with Napier
etc, I would buy a lot of parts off them.
