Diesel's and stuff 200

posted by  someone claiming to be Clayton on  Tue Apr 12 09:14 CST 2005 [RELATED]

Do you have any idea what you are talking about? Benz diesels not smelly? I have to pass those things (which is easy) just to keep from puking on the fumes. Benz diesels wear out their cylinder walls worse than the gas engines. Why would anyone have an S class with a diesel? Must be from europe. Most modern gas engines have emission levels so low that shops had to buy new equipment just to measure the CO and HC. Diesels have their place in trucks and boats, but not cars.
I figured it wouldn't be polite to tell the original poster he is crazy to swap in a diesel, but to recommend he should is nearly criminal.
