    2005 Sprinter second and reverse only

    To some people, an 05 Sprinter is something to envy; alcohol was involved (edit: I think it's more that I've been employed my whole life, something this person can't seem to do...I mean works not rocket science, he took it out on the sprinter cause I wasn't there)

    price of fuel

    I'm aware...my best paying runs lately have been a 4 lb box beside the drivers seat...still have to weigh the new (to me) sprinter. BTW OVM, still got that luxurious bunk? I'm out of the "coffin" but my foam board and blanket only add about 10 lbs...

    price of fuel

    I always convert Canadian litres to US gallons...with exchange...US fuel is still usually 40% cheaper or so...plan is to drop the Sprinter spare tire and mount an extra 50 gallon tank I do know there's no actual reason for prices to go up, but the speculators who actually cause the prices will...

    price of fuel

    Yep, it would be better to live there too. Rent here is 1695 a month, and that's cheap...the average house price is 700,000 in the suburbs... My carrier had me working almost every day at a decent rate and I was home every night. 2 people in my family have serious medical issues, I've been off...

    price of fuel

    It used to be 3000-4000 miles a week, not even close to that now. I know I won't be paying 0.90 cents a gallon for diesel like natural gas BTW, I get paid in Canadian so 2.00 US costs me 2.65...here a US gallon costs about 3.40

    Canada I'm going nuts here

    Turtle, in my opinion you should be writing the service manuals, the backs of the bottles, and the website for Mercedes, that post couldn't have been more clear, thank you. As for long internet searches, I've been mostly OOS due to family sickness and an unsuitable van since May 2 so I had the...

    Green diesel Sprinter tune

    Anybody using the Green Diesel tune? EGR is dead and its decision time, fix or eliminate. My sprinter has to go for emissions, and they hook up to the OBD2 and access the computer, as well as opacity test. I've heard the GDE tune get good reviews on Sprinter-source and the MPG and EGR problems...

    Darn thought he had a secret. My ford 7.3 went a million, never touched a thing but oil filters...oil changes were between 10,000 and 30,000 MILES on Rotella T5 conventional I got lazy...transmission never touched, I had fluid exchange done 3 times...parked it because the steering column was...
