An SDL at 200k miles is just over a pup.  IMHO, an OM603 is a pup 
until it crosses 200K.


Unless, of course, it's a 3.5L with a leaky head gasket and 
hydrolocked #1 piston.


Mitch.



Yep  Head gasket is an E service item on a 350SDL.

He's probably honest about the engine, but the problem with a non-running car 
is that it's impossible to test and evaluate a long list of things like the 
transmission, HVAC, suspension, electrical system, brakes, ABS, etc.  That's 
why the car is with little more than scrap.

Best option for the owner would be a turbo OM606 including the factory 
intercooler, but use the injection pump from this car.  Step up in power, 
reliability, refinement, lower fuel consumption, cleaner burning.

A pity.

Yep, a mighty fine car running, but I learned in about 1942 behind a '37 
Ford that there's nothing more worthLESS than a car that ya hafta push;

1991 Mercedes 350SDL

This Mercedes is in immaculate condition inside and out, but the engine 
needs serious work. All of the bells and whistles work on this car 
otherwise and it is a beauty to look at and drive (when the engine was 
fully functional). This car is power everything, has the expensive and 
awesome stock Mercedes tow hitch, has flawless leather and dash, etc.


This is a project car for someone who either wants the parts, has an engine 
to install into it or knows how to get someone to install an engine in it.


I have spent a lot of time and money on this car and am selling it for 
$1000 or best offer.


I really need someone to take this vehicle off my hands.
