Having lived with a Euro 500SL with K-Jet for 20 years, the K-jet cars can be a nightmare to troubleshoot if you don't understand the system. "Think like a German" has never been a more applicable statement when troubleshooting the K-Jet system. Add in the emissions controls that the US models used, and I'd rather kill myself than troubleshoot a problem.
