Improving Mercedes OM603 engine efficiency

[320touring]

Continuing my theme of No Expense Spared (TM) with this old stalwart..

The last tank of fuel included 10L (£14.79!) Worth of DERV - from Abingdon services in the m74, as the gauge hit 1/4 and can't be trusted. It was 1.45am, and we'd just driven up from Swansea, so we were not in the mood for running out.

As it turned out, we needen't have worried - it did 529.7miles on 75L 26.74 US MPG(32.11mpg imp)

In other news, a new pressure cap now abides.

It was £8.58. smashing
