hello all
I am graduating in a couple of months with a bachelors in Nursing. I am thinking of possibly moving to Washington state (spokane) and was wondering if there was anyone trolling the forums that could give me a little advice on what kind of MB diesel force I can find there. I have noticed that places like Utah have no diesel MB presence (and very little other older MB presence at that).
On to my question. Who lives in or near Spokane, WA that may have (or most likely have) more knowledge of these vehicles that I may tap.

Second. . . Has anyone tried removing the OEM tank and replaced it with a 2 tank veg system??

just lookin

Thanks

But I have had contact with quite a number of MB diesel owners from the Spokane area. Keep posting and you will eventually run into some. Nix on the 2 tank veggie burger approach. Why ruin a good car? You can modify one with rubber replacement to run on a biodiesel mix but that is as far as I would go.

Hi, there is a LARGE bio diesel support in Utah--which means more thana few 300d's---but they naturally need pickups there. I was scheming of using a small startup tank strapped in behind the driver side headlight--like a 1 1'4 gal plastic gas jug--or some other container that could fit--like junkyard headlight resivor washer tanks-- and then 1 selonoid switchover valve and two manual three ways, and a smallish heated--glow plug/and vwtype oilcooler convertid -heaterhose ran thru it, racor fuel filter. The drawback is you have to fill the small tank like every other day and if you only do short trips --you really dont get a chance for the car to warm up enought to switch to veggie-or 50/50 ina cooler climate like WA.

There are a few members here that live in Spokane/Eastern Washington. I know there are a few older Mercedes running around Spokane, and I am sure there are a few decent wrecking yards there as well. What is drawing you to Spokane?
