I have owned my 1989 240 GLT automatic for at least 5 years probably a bit more and it had 159,000 on the clock then and now just over 210,000 and not had any issues with the B230E engine running K jet.
Only issues I have had have been age/wear items mostly gearbox. Things like auto cooler pipe holed, and rear tail housing (bearing worn) on the AW70 leaking which I have had fixed. Then just normal service items. Best car I have owned and only cost me £350 to buy.
