Does it use any oil? Check if the car has a reman engine.

Doing some searches on 350SDL, rodbender, and the engine number (603.970) will get more info (and more posts by me!).

I'm running a '90 350SDL. If you have that many miles and it's running well, it might be okay.

Did it come with maintenance records? Do you have any history etc on the car?
