Call me chicken, or call me brilliant - but ever since I put a new radiator in Mary, I have always used official MB coolant in both cars. They sit on 175F (or 83C) and I am a happy camper. Usually order a jug from Autohaus AZ when I am filling an order for other things so I can get some free shipping. I lived with a hot car (90-100C) and I don't want to go back there again.

[diesel_mercedes] Fuel Economy Check '82 240 Automatic

 

AC used , Silver Bottle Diesel Kleen used , mostly AWMBO driving in town .

308 miles , 28.6 MPG .

She noticed it's smoking a bit @ hot idle , I'd love to overhaul or rebuild the engine and tranny in this car but the $ evades us for now .

Both cars (1983 300d's) got new radiator caps. Mary got a new P/S pump gasket, and got her 5 year old hood pad removed courtesy of my local car wash and super vacuum. Next up will be installation of an air filter for Mary, and a change of coolant (after I unthread the broken plastic radiator plug). And maybe I will replace the rear drivers door check, and put on 2 new muffler hangers (with the chain inside). Nothing major, just fun stuff now that autumn has come upon us.
