I hate to bother everyone again, but a compression test was done on my
300E- 1989 and all the cylinders were up near and over 190-200 except thr 4th, which was 130 lbs. He said "that cylinder shows heavy oil compsumption". But the car doesnt burn any oil, whith 119K on it. And it doesnt run hot or use coolant. Could a top end engine overhaul be done? Can I drive the car like this fir a while. The mechanic says i can drive it around like this. Hes had people with these cars, E s and S gas models run like this for 10+ years. Regards-Chuck- posted
