91 350SDL -- HELP - dropped something into engine
This is a new car to me and I was replacing the glow plugs. To make it easier I removed the Intake Manifold on that engine since some of them did not have the 'proper' nuts on the bad glow plugs.
My mistake was to not cover the intake holes and I think something fell into....ALL THE WAY into the cylinder (past the valve). I have all the nuts and bolts that I was using, so I can't figure out what fell in. After I put it together I heard a metallic bang, bang, bang when I started the engine so I shut it down right a way.

89 560 sel sits tilted
after my w126 560 sel sits for a while the left rear sags and the right front seems to lift. i played around with the ride hieght mech that is clamped to the rear sway bar but all that did was change the ride hieght. it does level out after a couple of miles. it's like something is leaking down somewhere, but where?
thanks
