Saw 2 wagons today
in East Dallas off of Lakeland. One turbo and one Euro. Is it anyone on this forum? The Euro wagon was in back yard, a beautiful navy blue. Nice

Drove by there again today hoping to see the Euro out on the street, and behold, there were 3 wagons at the house. Definitely a MB wagon fan at that house.

Long story Brandon that folks get tired of hearing I bet. Smoke, smoke, misses, and more smoke. After exhaustive posting and many answers, it seems maybe a chain stretch problem causing valve timing to be off. I have no chain stretch indicator bracket on my wagon, so I can't check it that way. Will probably have chain replaced and IP timed and go from there maybe...
