[W126 Coupe] Pricing Question

[Ronny]

No. 4 cycles.
I worked as a ship engineer on tankers with 2 cycle engines and that was totally different.

  Yep, the '84 and '85 300 diesel with no injectors or fuel pump!  These things get truly awesome mileage... can go almost forever with a single tank of fuel!  The problem is finding one in decent shape.  Like with air in the tires.  (Not that tires are really essential...)

    Now THAT'S an innovative design!


      and their bullet proof engines and trans reliable as hell

    I'll bet they are! With no injectors and no fuel pump they won't have to handle much horsepower.
