1980 Mercedes Benz 300SD Turbo Diesel $2500

1980 Mercedes Benz 300SD Turbo Diesel $2500
S-Class Mercedes with "single tank conversion" from Lovecraft runs on 100% vegetable oil = free fuel! Can also run on biodiesel or diesel (and any combination of the 3). I'll be happy to show you how to collect, filter, and fill with free used vegetable oil.
175,000 miles. No rust. Very safe car, tank-like. Peppy turbo. A/C works. NEW: brakes (calipers, pads, master cylinder), 4 tires, A/C service, engine mounts, engine shocks, steering box. Known issues: oil leak at turbo charger, engine noise, some dash instruments don't work. This car is not drivable until the oil leak is fixed. It starts and idles, but loses oil. My mechanic says $400 to fix the leak.

how much to fix the Lovecrap system you installed on there? How many miles on it, because depending on how long you, you may have already caused irreversible damage to the engine.

Prepare to be flamed much worse than this message

The conversion system works fine. It could be removed (if desired) even more easily than it went in. Car has fewer than 5,000 miles since conversion.

Ignorance. It is not their fault. People have been buying into the LoveCrap system for a long time. They just don't know any better...
