I like the way 280s sound too. So yes. In fact I had one for my first MB. Except it was a carbureted 1975 w114. I lived in San Diego when I bought it. Driving around San Diego on the freeways I got...

The worst I ever got out of my 83 300SD was 19 mpg, driving it like I stole it. Long road trips 25 ish, with people and luggage. Best ever, 27. 85's do better, due to taller gearing.

The head gasket issues with the OM602-3 are more time related. There seems to be an epidemic of head gasket failures on the early 90's OM602s lately. Most have a lot of miles on them when they fail,...

Could be the beginning of the end of your Gead Hasket. :D

Could be a clogged or weak injector. I've seen several OM60X's put out a few puffs at start-up, then run beautifully.

Lubro Molly Diesel Purge made my 79 240D run very smooth. I highly recommend it. Feels like it added at least 1 lb ft of torque.

It's a little more involved than just adding a bottle to your...

The hood insulation from NAPA varies by location. My nearest NAPA is about $9 cheaper for the same item.

I followed your link to Amazon and found the size a little lower on the page. It's 24 x 48.

That one looks like it has a decent car under all the tacked on crap as well. I'd be affraid of what the PO had done to the rest of the car, though. Obviously the product of severe drug addiction. :(

Lots of OM602 & 603 have white smoke "issues". Like they're smoking crack! There was a great thread last year...http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/showthread.php?p=2229480

I was gonna say 22-24 in mixed use. A little more on long trips, like 25. By today's standards not that great.

Have you checked your oil level lately? If it is burning oil from a bad head gasket it can go through oil very quickly. I'd check it before starting the engine tomorrow, just in case.

So, I guess next week we can expect a post from you asking how long will a 123 float?

Maybe windshield or trunk seals. I'll stay tuned. Hope you don't wash away in a debris flow.
