My Mog is DEAD!!!!!!!

[skyhuck]

Sorry to hear that Dave.Hope the Mog comes back better than ever mate!

 

Thats what I'm hoping mate!!

 

Going to have a wastegate turbo fitted to take her up to 240 horse.

 

So we should get to site earlier! and earn more money to pay for the repairs!

[Mike Hill]

How many hours has the engine done mate?

Are you getting a waste gate control fitted to the Turbo or is it a new special unit?

[skyhuck]

What a bummer - hope it's sorted soon without too much cost.

 

Thanks mate, it will be sorted soon, but it will be very expensive

Just under 8000.

 

New Turbo.

Mercedes Engines for Sale

 

the OM366LA etc is in lots of past road trucks - e.g. ebay & you could go and test drive them to!

 

did you not check your anti-freeze? its that time of year

[Mr Ed]

Dave,

Bad luck mate, I guess this will be a real blow. Do you need to borrow a truck to get you by?

would you not be better off sourcing a good used engine from an 1824 merc truck? after all, the truck engine is already running at the higher power rating from the factory/

Dave,

Do you need to borrow a truck to get you by?

 

Thanks Ed thats a really kind offer!!

 

I've managed to borrow a mog for now.

 

Thanks Mate!!
