Clay, The front muffler isn't totally necessary and there will only be a small difference in the noise level Its usually just a matter of preference and of course a few extra bucks for the center muffler if you choose to put a new one on. It will fine without it 69 280 SEL 120,000 Miles 72 350SL 108,000 Miles 2004 VW Passat 4 Motion 1999 Mazda Miata -----Original Message----- From: redghost <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Mercedes list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Banned List <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thu, 27 Oct 2005 21:16:37 -0700 Subject: [MBZ] Gump muffler
I think Gump is getting noisy. May have a hole in the exhaust pipe some place to go with a clapped out muffler. Crawled under and there is only the rear muffler, not the front one the parts book shows. Is there a need for a front muffler on a 72 220D? -- Clay Seattle Bioburner 1972 220D - Gump 1995 E300D - Cleo 1987 300SDL - POS - DOA The FSM would drive a Diesel Benz _______________________________________ For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://striplin.net/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_striplin.net __________________________________________________________________ Look What The New Netscape.com Can Do!
