1. As for the glows, I had them done by a mechanic in NJ that told me he "scoped" them & they looked spotless.
2. If you know of someone in the St. Pete - Ft. Myers area, that'd be great. Gainesville is quite a haul to see a mechanic.
3. There is definately something in the fuel system as I've had to install 4 - 6 of the plastic filters in 15k miles. I'm on my 2nd spin-on. They clog w/ something very dark or black, though it seems to be improving. I running 1000+ miles a week so the flushing of the system is being cared for.

Is there a "Bentley Manual" for MB like I get for the old Beemers? They are like a Bible for my e28's. I haven't seen one other than one that covers a whole ton of MB models.

Thanks again
