[MBZ] Update on the no idle 603

Turns out there is a hole in the bottom of the IP.  I imagine the 
governor and/or a plunger is ruined...  so he's looking for a used ip.

Anybody have one for sale?

Here's the original post:

A friend's parents have a 300SDL that won't idle.  The car will run 
fine down the road, but you have to apply throttle to keep it running at
idle.  If you take your foot off of the throttle at idle it will drop
below idle, surge above idle, then shut off.  There is no smoke, and the
onset of the problem was fairly sudden.  The delivery valves are leaking
a little bit.

My thoughts are fuel filters - delivery valves - bad injection pump
governor.

Sounds good.  Do you happen to have any bad ones you want to get rid

How much was it for your 2.5T rebuild?  ~$700?  The only thing is there 
would be a core charge as his has a hole in the casing.
