w202 c250 no turbo oil water mixing

[cemt]

I have a 1996 c250d, The car's head is bust, now the car is parked at a merc dealer, not starting(switches off when fuel needle reaches quarter mark). Does anybody know how I can get the car to start?

I need to get the car back home as its going to cost me an arm an leg to fix at the dealer, the mechanic at merc offered to do it privately for 1/10th the price...

any ideas to get it started...it swings but just kills the battery...seems like the battery power is not enough.

thanks

Hi

If head gasket is gone it is most likely that there is water in the bore, water is virtually incompressible compared to air and as such your motor will not turn over (it cant compress the water), i would try and get the car towed home.
