I asked him if I could pull my car up and at least see if it would
still crank, or at least turn over. Well, you can, but if it still
runs it's worth more and I'm gonna charge you more for it.

I have a 1991 Suburban with a 6.2 liter diesel.The Suburban is large,luxurious and has all possible options.I only have around $4,000.00invested in it.Why not look for something like this?
Primarily because I don't want to drive a large

No, but I think it sounds like a whopping amount of work when you can
buy a used 240D or 300D for a few thousand.
Bear in mind diesels have no vacuum so you will need a pump if your gas

exactly picture what you're looking at, since I replaced the waterpump

I personally retrofitted my own bracket mount anyway, because the one that was there was WAY bigger than necessary.
