I am selling a complete engine (radiator to flexplate) from a 1981 Mercedes 300D, the venerable OM617 with 181,000 miles. This engine is the non-turbo version.

I have taken the engine out of the car and mounted it on a skid. It is fully functional and you can see and hear it run on the skid before you buy it.
Just to be clear, here is a list of what is included with the engine; Radiator, oil cooler, fan and thermostatic clutch, alternator, power steering pump, vacuum pump, A/C compressor (locked up), injection pump and filter, air cleaner, starter, flexplate, newer battery, glow plug relay and wiring harness. Also some extra oil and fuel filters.

This engine starts right up even when cold, just needing a normal glow period. As you can see from the pictures it does have some oil leaks, and it does burn a some oil. Otherwise it is a good running engine that I have no need for anymore. I am asking $500.

I am located just east of Columbus, Ohio, and I have an engine hoist to load the skid into the back of your truck or trailer.

Thanks!
