I guess I'll just forget about it looking through this web site this car seems like the worst thing benz ever came up with. no one has anything nice to say about them. as for a great price i was offered $450 as is or $1200 up and running.

I placed the plugs in the car and no go. engine turns over very smooth very quiet. everything looks good however I probably did the plug wiring wrong. i cant find any info on the cylinder order. the way the wires in the harness were setup it went in normal counting order pass side 1234 drivers 5678 now i know that cant be correct. I've never seen a car that would be set up like that normally its something weird like 1352 7684 i dunno, the firing order don't help unless you know which cylinder is which. It also seems like theres a lack of fuel going to the engine I pushed down on the air vent on the injector and the smell of gas was pretty weak it eventually got stronger but i had to go to work by that time.

I dont belive the head gasket is blown coolent looks fine oil looks fine no muddy appearence. theres no noise coming from the timing chain area no knocking from the cam areas either. everything seems very clean and smooth.I bet it something very simple that just being over looked
