Is it a crime to junk a good running MB diesel engine?
Guys,
I have a good running 240D engine in my parts car. It has 267 k, but starts on the first crank in the winter. Its got some decent blow-by, and smokes a little bit, but nothing I don't think a little attention couldn't fix. I just don't need it, and I need to get rid of the car soon.
Or, would nobody in their right mind use this as an engine donor with so many miles, and should I just send it to the yard after I strip the rest of the parts off? What would you do...(no I cant keep it :-) )
Opinions?
