Trouble with the 300CD engine.. mysterious engine shaking at idle after 20 min drive
So i have a 300cd that i just picked up and immead noticed the air cleaner was vibrating and spewing a slow but steady oil mist all over the valve cover. i took it apart checked the filter and the connection to the blow back connecting pipe and then just put it back together. there was oil everywhere down there. The reason i did this was that then engine starts to shake more and more the longer i have the car running from side to side. its a 125k engine turbo from 83 and i have no idea why. new mounts aside when i first turn it on for a while it is super smooth and the longer its on the more it shakes. i was thinking pressure perhaps but im not sure. please help me diagnose. the next step is a proper engine wash but i have not had time yet. thanks. and if anyone has a rear bumper off a parts car there not using in the nyc area for cheap i will happily give you some cash for it.
thanks
patrick
