Good. GOD. What did they do to that poor car. Sad thing is, it was pretty fucking fresh when I sold it if I do say so myself. I bet one of the retards ran it low on oil or as was mentioned a failed injector. I cranked the battery dead twice trying to prime oil pressure as I remember until I jacked the ass of the car up as high as my floor jack could get it. Never fired it until it cranked 40lbs of pressure or so. I kinda doubt that was anything that started to deteriorate while I had it, I ran the shit out of it for a coupe years (and daily drove it for that matter). Big difference there was I actually took care of the thing, was very particular about maintenance, ran quality oil, and always let it warm up before running it hard. Sad to see how people ruin something you put so much effort into. Granted I sold it and got my price, but after all the work and research/trial/error to make it into what it was, I still find shit like this annoying
!
Anyway I'm back around with another '84 760 GLE cuz I just couldn't stay away from these damn things. As I like to say, junk loves company and i've got plenty of junk.
