[MBZ] Was another engine swap car, now could this be a collector?

with 6 cylinder engine and C4 automatic transmission - cost me $500.00 and there was absolutely nothing wrong with the car. I bought it from my Dad in 1977, who bought it for my Mother in 1973 for the same $500.00. Te car would be worth about $8,000 today. Thanks, Tom Hargrave www.kegkits.com http

Re: [MBZ] Driving a turbodiesel missing 3 injector seals

The heat shields protect the injectors from excess engine heat, not the other way around. Probably no harm done. Thanks, Tom Hargrave www.kegkits.com http://www.kegkits.com/JABF/ 256-656-1924 -Original Message- From: mercedes-boun...@okiebenz.com [mailto:mercedes-boun...@okiebenz.com
