I noticed since I bought my w211 e350 that it was drinking oil, not burning it like a normal car, I mean drinking 1L pro 300km estimated.
I want to give out that this engine has a LPG system installed that needs a separated lube system. Because LPG is dry burning in needs lube so it does not ruin your walls or the valves.
I thing that the previous owner did not know that the LPG valve oil pump was broken and ran with it dry or he did not knew that it needs any oil...
Or it might be from the build quallity of the engine sleeves or the engine was not maintained properly and it came to this results.
I had the chance to make some photos of the engine sleeves and I would like to get any advice or tips from other users that have more knowledge then me.
I would like to rebuild the engine, I dont trust any other engine...
Does somebody know where I can buy the sleeves or Liner from? After a day of searching did not find any results.
I might have some more questions but they dont cross my mind at the moment. If anybody can help me please do so.
