My nasty diesel is now the E300D. For some reason the glow plugs are not warming. At least two have stopped, so it belches a huge smoke screen of a cold morn. Took it to the car docktor. Same indy who works on Frosch. He called not 20 minutes after I left it for him to patch up in the morning. Since it was there he took a look at it. Leaking seals and fuel all over, dead GPs, more tribulations. Do I want to spend $1500 to repair?
Beats spending $25k to replace, but SWMBA is now blaming me for the demise of all tri-star vehicles. Gump, Frosch, and now the car she passed down to me. At least the repair bills for the cars I drive amount to less than three months of her car payments per annum. clay 1974 450sl - Frosch - Two tone green 1972 220D - Gump - She is green, simple and ran 1995 E300D - Cleo - Used by the Queen of Denial POS 1987 SDL - Beware Nigerian Scammers On Jan 27, 2013, at 6:19 PM, Rich Thomas wrote: > No I got it.
