Andrew,
Have you found a turbo yet? I may have a spare that I can part with from a
300D, 123 sedan 82-85. Pulled from an engine that had a bad connecting rod
bearing.
I will take a look out in our pole barn,before I leave for Detroit this
morning.

Andrew,
Engine was in an 82. I didn't see it this morning and didn't have time to
dig. Will check again when I get back home Thursday. Sorry I can do more
right now, but have to travel out of town to Detroit for work.

It looked like there might have been a small LCD terminal at the one end of
the engine assembly stand along with the laser scanner that was next to it.

It is also fun to look at the old neighborhood were you grew up and see what
changes have occurred to the homestead without actually having to drive
there and see for yourself.

My charge account was finally credited from buymbparts.biz. It took over

I didn't have any trouble on my E300D when I had to change them. I was
surprised how long they were. I did have some flakey light of the glow plug
light after I changed them, but the issue seems to have gone away after a
period of about a month. Not sure what caused it, an over sensitive glow
I think it is an off white or palameno

Only if I can keep the rust at bay. It did spend most of its life out in
California, but being in Ohio there is more salt. Maybe I should get my 82
300D back on the road.

That is one of the things I enjoyed about Rusty's BuyMBParts before he sold
it. The web site still list the old phone number, but it appears to have
been disconnected.
Might have to try a new place. I did compare the price at the Keenan site
and the muffler part I just ordered from BuyMBParts
I will have to correct what I paid for my muffler from BuyMBParts it was
actually 220 for the muffler, 275 was the total and I had also bought oil
filters and exhaust pipe clamps. Sorry for the oversight. BUYMBPARTS does
have free shipping on orders over $100.00.
