Well, got the diagnosis from our local Benz indy shop and sure enough, looks like a busted crank pulley. Pumps and other pulleys appear working, but a full belt change required to be safe. Thermostat and coolant change as well. As it’s going to involve getting those dead screw carcasses out, and screwing that up could result in more problems, I’m just having them do it. It’s going to be far more expensive than I imagine most of you would consider paying, but it’s that or let it sit and waste away until I have free time (which won’t be anytime soon).
