My "ancient" car can actually handle the WVO better than a modern car with closer tolerances. No computer controls, and best of all, NO EMISSIONS, no EGR, no cat, no ECM. It may seem ancient to Europe but, there are over 120,000 W123's like mine still on the road in the US. Damn the inefficiency if you're a commie.....oh well, the fuel is cheaper over here.
