Well, here's an updaste and a very expensive 'lesson learned'. The 24 deg.btdc is the drip method and it was done by one that is not a MB tech. So my reg. MB tech found it at 15 ATDC! ANother 300+ to get it running. So lesson is IF the car is dead it is worth the trouble to wait until you can get it trailered!! I hate getting burned, don't let it happen to you! Happy motoring guys. LH
