The other day I commented I'd only paid $2.95 / gallon and was happy ~ the same station just dropped to $2.65 / Gallon ! wow .

Not far from there is a filling station I regularly use , they've remained at $3.09 for months then dropped to $2.79 overnight ~ that's a thirty cent drop , quite a bit when you use as much fuel as I do .

[diesel_mercedes] Fuel Tank Job Finished (?) [2 Attachments]

 
[Attachment(s) from vwnate1@yahoo.com [diesel_mercedes] included below]

Here's a pic .of the last thing :

The filler neck grommet .

Important because it prevents Diesel fumes from being drafted into the trunk and then the passenger compartment .

Sorry it's so dirty .

Next time I'll buy the OEM grommet from The Classic Center ~ this one is very well made and is of good quality rubber but I'm picky .

[diesel_mercedes] Re: Vibrating gear shift lever - Sylvia 1984 - 300 SD

 



Just so Brian ;

When I ran a Junk Yard I was always amazed at the perfectly good vehicles folks would scrap out when only 10 years old because of niggly little things ~ I made a tidy profit cleaning and tinkering them back to good health then selling for retail Dollar .

I am pleased to say that not _once_ did one ever come back with any complaint .

Any machine needs periodic maintenance and repairs .
