Since im currently using it as my DD i dont want to tear anything up.

So, is it really bad for the engine and does any one have the instructions on how to setup that kit?
I picked up a cheap spare #17 head from a guy that had run it on WVO. Here's how it looked before I disassembled and cleaned it.

Prechambers










Injectors








So if you would like to provide cheap spare parts for others, GO FOR IT

Every MB I've seen thats been run on WVO had a few qualities in common: Terribly hacky modifications under the hood, fuel leaks everywhere both in the trunk and under the hood accompanied by the vile stench of rancid oil and it ran like crap. The owner is usually deep in denial about the condition of the car and he swears up and down that it just needs a little more work to get it dialed in.
