Feersty,
The 89' is a 300E according to our online inventory. The 90' is not in yet. I will find out about that one tomorrow. This is what our Chrysler site tells me but I am not sure how accurate it is. I was told they both run good. 1989 Mercedes-Benz 300E 4DR Mileage: 192,250 miles Body Style: Sedan 4 Dr. Exterior: White Engine: 3.0L 6 cyl Fuel Injection Doors: 4

Feersty, Randy Faul's is about the most honest tech I've ever spoken to. If he says the car is crap, it's probably crap. Car bash at the car show would be a great idea. Maybe turn it into a New car for Feersty fundraiser. Another idea would be to tow/drive it out somewhere, fill it with gas and light it.

Now I really call BS on the mechanic -
Listened to and drove the car today. I highly doubt its a rod bearing - there is no clacking noise, just a little rattle at certain RPMs that sounds like a loose heat shield. The car is running rough and doesn't have much power - it just feels like its not hitting on all 6 cylinders. Transmission shifts a little rough but it isn't horrible. I think new plugs / wires (maybe a coil pack) would fix the problem completely.

guessing what would fix it is ofttimes a waste of money.

And sometimes not... I mean, the car is kinda shot. I personally wouldn't fix it. But if its worth the $50 in parts to TRY to fix it it might be worth a shot for F-dogg.

Well, I think the best bet is to pull the plug wires one at a time and see if there is any change before buying parts. If all the plugs look ok all cylinders are still hitting then it's not worth buying the parts - if I pull a wire and there is no change in the way the engine runs then the problem is exposed.

Put a snail on it, go to race wars, *then* do some diagnostics.
