Yes that is a rod bender. Totally agree that the SDL would have been a
better choice than the 123.

That is correct, more so that I replace the seals on the injectors, the
injectors themselves aren’t leaking - it’s the seal between the injector nozzle
and the head, a copper washer. Parts to do the whole set are like $18.00 from
the dealer, and it’s common enough that my dealer stocks them.
I thought as long you replaced the leaking injectors it would be okay?

Bought it for $389 in '68 and sold it to my landlord for $35 a year later.
Great cruising car, with an orthopedically designed driver's seat for
comfort on the road.

I might be interested in your five hole rims. Are they really five hole,
or are they eight hole, from a 124 car? Are they MB rims, or aftermarket?
If you have an LKQ or other you-pull-it salvage yard nearby, bundt rims
might show up occasionally for pretty cheap.

If a doctor doesn't make $700 an hour, why should I pay $1500 to be stuck on a
gurney in the ER and mostly ignored for 90 minutes?
