i DROVE THE 300ce AND IT WAS SITTING FOR LAST 2 MONTHS AND MUST HAVE HAD moisture in the gas - it sputtered and stalled-


The SDL drove like a living room on wheels- a very comfortable living room .....

and it is a Diesel - After 2 yrs of driving my 300D I do like thesound and feel of the rattle rattle rattle......

MY only concerns I think is that I've heard the SDL's had some issues. and the cylader head is not cast iron like an ol' 300D, so I'm not sure how it would handle WVO .....

Any input on the issues & durability of the 86 SDL 's is greatly appreciated....

It is overall for an '86 a 9.5 out of 10 in my book.
