This is weird, I took a snap of the VIN plate, it was raining yesterday
so I didn't look at it too closely. Turns out it is a 97 not a 99 and
not a turbo. I must admit in the rain I did not look too closely, just
to see that the intake manifold and such was off and there was work on
the injection pump. Thinking about it I don't think it had a turbo and
it didn't register on me at the time. I guess the 606.912 is NA.
I went to send the guy a msg and our message thread was deleted off my
phone from Messenger. Weird. I wonder if he deleted it. The posting
has been deleted too, maybe someone came and got it yesterday or since
he has these offers he just deleted it.
Oh well, not sure I want a non-turbo, I guess I could swap the turbo
engine into it easy enough but not worth fooling with as I have this
other $500E300 here I need to swap the relays into and get it running.
The injection pump would not work on it from what I can tell.
So that's a no-go

I went and looked at it. Really nice car, dark blue with the tan
interior in good shape, needs tires (I have a new set on the wrecked
$500E300) as the fronts were totally shot (alignment?). He has the
top
torn apart and injector lines and what not to get at the injection
pump. He says it is the fuel pump is leaking, was blowing fuel all
over. His brother was doing the work on it then moved and never
finished it so it has sat. This guy Nabil is moving so wants to
unload
it. I offered him $500 cash right there but he said some other guy
offered him $600 and is coming Saturday so wants to honor that offer
(which is honorable, imagine that, a used car seller...) but if
the guy
backs out he'll take my $500. So we'll see. I figure it would be
like
an afternoon of work to swap the bits over and get it back together.

>> I Have had this car as my daily driver for about 4 years never
had a problem. we Needed something bigger but still did not want
to sill the Mercedes. started having a hard time starting it and I
notice fuel smell so I took a look at it to find out the seal for
the fuel pump was sucking air to the engine therefore having
trouble starting the car. I started working on it a few months ago
and now I'm moving this summer I figured I'm gonna sell it just
don't have time to finish it you'll need to get the car towed,
replace The fuel seal and you will need new tires and should be
good to drive. L
