I must say, this 1990 300TE is one tough cookie...purchased for pennies and took me a good 6 months to figure it out...but this tough cookie here...3 Chicago winters and 20K miles and I have spent less than $1000 maintenance and my wife drives this car every day! Starts it every morning in subzero temputures...thing just starts and runs...the blower motor fans is weak, but that's typical German, BMW's do the same thing (Behr is sorry!)....but other than that...
