Exhaust or the diesel cat, sound panels, full size spare tire, all fuses and relays, calipers, visors, corner and brake lenses, hood star, door latch things that always break, jack, tool kit, floor mats, vac pump

No wrecking yard sells cats, all front sheet metal and lights are gone, all accessories from the engine are gone, everything in the trunk gone. Only a few things on your list are still there. There are 210's in the yards around here quite often nowadays, but this is the first Diesel I have seen. If I had the time & $, I would pull and buy every useful part and resell. However, it looks like I can maybe get the head, manifold and turbo this time. If any of the parts are there that are on the above lists, I will try to get as well......Rich

I'll take the Duovalve!! Let me know. Thanks.

I went today to get some parts, but had a few problems. I was trying to pull the head, and I broke my tool for the head bolts. I went to Harbor Freight, and they had nothing like it (probably would break anyway). I was able to get the glove box, so whoever needed parts for it, please PM me. I am going back with a new tool for the head bolts, and will get the mono valve while I am there. I got a set of perfect rear rotors for my friends car also. Stay tuned....Rich

Get the water pump pulley. Its smaller and fits all previous om601-606.

Not sure, but I think it is gone.

I was wrong, it is still there:

I successfully got the head off. I had to borrow a tool from a friend after breaking mine removing the first head bolt.

The gear shifter is trashed, and all the console stuff is gone (climate control, switches etc).

The turbo and exhaust manifold are still there. If someone wants them, I will go and get them as long as I make a little $ (or a lot if possible

) for my time and effort.

I really need a set of injector lines and clips if they aren't all bent up/broke and would gladly pay you

perhaps the plastic panel that covers the valve cover too.

All that stuff was gone when I got there. I do have one NEW line (not sure which one) that I bought for my car because I thought it was bad. It ended up being a loose nut (sorta like the one behind the wheel

). All the lines and plastic clips are still available from our sponsor. Worst case is I have used zip ties to hold the lines. Two on each one threaded through the slotted holes in the metal brackets....Rich

Ah dang, mine will work but the monkey who pulled the injectors before i got it bent them all up. Was hoping someone had a good used set. Thanks for checking!
