this one has the first double overhead cam diesel engine so
it does not need a turbo. It will out run my previous Mercedes
2.5turbo. This car also has the more diserable 4 speed
transmission that does not cost $4500 for repairs like the newer 5
speed unit.
Are these three statements true?
I bet if a 5sp costs $4500 including installation labor, that a 4sp
would be $3500 at the same shop. The 602 turbo started out around 123
hp in '87, then it got EGR when they put it in the early 90's 300D. I
think the NA 606 was more like 134hp, with no turbo lag. (remember,
we're comparing a 2.5L ten valve turbo with a 3.0 liter 24V engine with
variable intake tuning)
So where can one find a list of what series engines and what series
chassis go with what years and models? The link I have is no longer good.

[MBZ] OT More Cathey-inspired repairs
Our lovely pool has been getting plenty of use both by us and my little boat that's still running, but the performance of the filter pump has been steadily decreasing. I noticed that starving for water sound, so I checked the skimmer basket which was full of debris. When I first put it back in, I noticed that it was sitting lower in the skimmer than usual. It was still starving for water, and when I removed the now emptied basket again, the water flow went back to normal. I inspected the basket and found that the risers on the bottom of the basket were broken off causing it to sit too low and too close to the suction pipe blocking the water flow! I drilled two 1/4 holes (one in each side of the bottom of the basket), and installed two bolts with nuts and tightened them leaving the 1/2 of the excess bolt sticking through the bottom. It worked! I threaded some nuts onto the bottom to make it more stable. It saved me from having to get a ride to the pool store and buy a new basket!

Re: [MBZ] I love stupid people
I think you've experienced what happens to people when they put a car up for sale in the local paper -- pre internet days I'd advertise something and would get all kinds of calls. When I sold my '59 VW Beetle with bad tranny for $400 I had people calling asking if it could be driven daily - even though the ad said clearly Not Drivable Either they don't read the article or they're unable to understand plain English.! and this happened over over. When I sold my Lotus people called to ask What does it look like? Huh? It looks like a Lotus - if you don;t know what a car looks like you probably shouldn;t be considering buying it. Besides, how do you describe what a car looks like to a non-car person? The guy who contacted you about yourE430 probably thought you'd be happy if someone showed interest in your car. Then, since he had no intention of buying it found very minor things to make it look like the car was unacceptable rather than saying he didn;t have the money.

If houses were in town you could use less oil driving to Wal-Mart to buy junk you don't need. If everybody bought less junk they don't need there'd be less shipping using oil, fewer factories in China and India using oil and less oil used as raw materials.

To: Mercedes Discussion List mercedes@okiebenz.com Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Well put Kaleb. The issue is the very small amount of slack capacity in the worldwide market (about 1 million barrels / day). If you increase that slack a bit, the prices will naturally lessen. The open market (which you can't close down, no matter what the clowns in Washington, DC think) will continue to set the price based on risk and more supply means less risk. Less risk of someone blowing something up that causes that 1 million slack to go away temporarily, less risk of another dictator taking over some other facility, etc. Kaleb is correct that what we need to do in the short term is to remove some of that risk. During that time we need to free people to come up with longer term solutions. Some folks seem to view the world as a zero sum game. You can't have more because that means there is less for someone else. That is flawed thinking that doesn't hold up to the scrutiny of history. The price of energy (and just wait until winter sets in and natural gas, coal and electricity hikes hit) has become a pain point for many. That will enable creative minds to find ways to lessen that pain and create new wealth. We can't all go back to our agrarian roots.

Re: [MBZ] 603 IP timing
Thanks for the confirmation. The procedure I am following is to set the engine to 10 ATDC, put in the pin and rotate. I got the IP set so that when the pin first drops in the engine is right on 15 degrees. I just wanted some confirmation as the article I printed says set the engine at 10 ATDC. then put the pin in and set the pump at 15 degrees, but it didn't specify ATDC. This is my first go-round with OM60x IP timing. For the most part, they are extremely reliable. I've never had to set one before.

Re: [MBZ] poll -- just for my own curiousity .. Gary sees sooo many gay women
Gary, you shouldn't talk about your mother and daughter that way, though I suspect that is the way you feel about your ex. Could be one of the reasons for that status. So, more than half the population shouldn't have a say in leadership because they look at things from a different perspective than you do. I didn't realize so many of the women I know were so preoccupied with sex - maybe I should get a new GP because she is secretly turned on by old pudgy men. Interesting, but not as interesting as the huge number of women who wanted Hillary to win... I didn't know so many women were gay. But then you do like to stir things up, don't you?

Re: [MBZ] Totally OT poll -- just for my own curiousity
I don't think BHO Sr was a father in the proper sense of the word, he was more of a babadadduh. Not that BHO Jr has any responsibility in that regard, it was his mother's responsibility (or lack thereof), but I am sure it has had a significant effect on him. The way he has bounced around, it is probably hard for him to feel a part of much of anything. I don't put much into that early schooling business, I can barely remember what school I went to when I was 6 or 8 yr old, and what if anything I was taught. An article in the NYTimes quoted his (half) sister (of the Indonesian father) as saying he took on the black identity at some point in high school in Hawaii (where he was the only, or one of the very few, kid who was darker than the others), sort of a self-identification, which she had no particular feelings about one way or the other as it was his right to be who he wanted to be. Then I think after college/law school (and probably during), in Chicago, that (and that church aspect) became an expedient element of his political aspirations. It is interesting to note too that his mother was white, his father was 1/4 black African and 3/4 Arab (he had one black grandmother I think), making BHO Jr 1/8 black African. I guess if he wants to be black that is his right -- I want to be a 24 yr old buffed stud with a, well, I won't go there, and I suppose if enough people believe I am then I can believe that I am and present myself as such. I do admire his tenacity and trajectory, it shows a lot of dedication and intelligence and hard work to get as far as he (or anyone in a similar position) has. I just don't think any of it really particularly qualifies him to be president, and I find his political leanings far from mine. --R Mitch Haley wrote: Rich Thomas wrote: (1) He *should* be a muslim per his father's choice of religion, Why put father's in quotation marks?

this one has the first double overhead cam diesel engine so it
does not need a turbo. It will out run my previous Mercedes 2.5turbo.
This car also has the more diserable 4 speed transmission that does not
cost $4500 for repairs like the newer 5 speed unit.
Are these three statements true?
The OM606 that is in the car does have similar horsepower numbers to the
earlier diesels (may even be faster than an '87 300D). If you are at
any altitude above sea level though it will get slow fast. Personally,
I wouldn't buy a non-turbo unless it was a W115 or similar vintage where
one wasn't available.
The five speed transmission is in the W210 chassis. It is about twice
as expensive. Most likely to do with the fact it is computer controlled.
My 2.5T is still for sale ;)

Re: [MBZ] Let the oil flow!
I'm a bit late on this one - Among all of the other things we wouldn't like, one of the things that does make some sense is to have more food produced and consumed in the same area, and get used to eating what is local and in season. Do we really need fresh fruit/flowers/fish grown half a world away? Just some sensible changes would help the amount of waste in the system. IIRC the small farmer is more productive per acre than the mega-farm. Don't know for sure about that in our mid-West, but I am sure it is true for third world areas.

Re: [MBZ] Crushing classic cars
http://www.newsobserver.com/news/story/1139204.html Scott Thompson, co-owner of TTE, said he gets about 20 police inquiries a week about metal theft. There have just been a rash of incidents, he said. Unfortunately, there's not a great tracking system in place, so there's only so much we can do. If a car is less than 10 years old, Thompson explained, the person bringing it in must have a notarized title. But for older cars, all a person needs is the make, model and vehicle identification number. We just try and use common sense, Thompson said. -- Apparently, common sense involves crushing showpieces before anybody shows up to claim them.

first thing women did with the right to vote was prohibition, which created organized crime. without prohibition, luciano and capone would have never graduated from shaking down pushcarts in lower manhattan and the kennedy's would be famous boston bartenders. then it was the new deal and the perpetual welfare state. how many people have been damaged by this? you'd think they could counterbalance this stupidity by putting an end to war, but they just jump on every stupid bloodbath as long as some attractive man supports it too.

I didn't realize so many of the women I know were so preoccupied with sex - maybe I should get a new GP because she is secretly turned on by old pudgy men.

Re: [MBZ] I love stupid people
Well when I talked to the guy on the phone he said at that time he really was not looking for a 124 etc, and what would I take. Well, I told him its a very clean low mile 124 for 5 grand or less, probably not going to be a whole lot of room to drop but he is more than welcome to make an offer. The things he described as wrong with the car sounds like he is looking for a new car or perhaps a car that is a year or 2 old. Not one that is 14 years old and not certainly one in this price range. Geez. Would have been one thing if he would have just said he was not interested, but he made it out like Im hiding things about the car, and its just a total beat up piece of crap. At this point, I would not sell the car to the guy even at full price. He is the type I prefer not to deal with because they are a pain in the ass later. If the do buy something, later the bitch and want you to fix this or fix that, or pay them back because they took their 500 240D to the dealer and spent 5k on it or something.

Re: [MBZ] Crushing classic cars

Re: [MBZ] 603 IP timing
The actual start of injection is still 26 BTDC using the drip method, but the locking tab on the IP comes up at 15ATDC due to the need to locate it on the side of the pump and the design of the governor. The locking tab is more accurate, I think.

Re: [MBZ] question for people who know about music - still no MB
My younger brother discovered just what competition was when he got to North Texas. He thought he was a pretty good sax player until he started meeting these guys who were from families of 2-3 generations of jazz musicians and got their first horn handed to them in the cradle. (Our Dad can't carry a tune in a bucket) He ended up in one of the reading bands on tenor his Freshman year. Switched to bari after that and made it as far up as the 4:00 band. He realized pretty quickly he didn't want to teach and you don't need a degree to performed. Switched to business for his degree. Of course, no way to explain how he ended up as a pilot instead... Me, I was a journeyman trombone player. Spent a couple of years in the University of Texas Jazz Orchestra until I got too short on practice time. Still ahve a couple of horns in the closet.

Re: [MBZ] Crushing classic cars
Tom Hargrave: I suspect that there is more to this story. Some municipalities have a strict limit on the number of cars you have and if you exceed the limit, they will haul them away and crush them at your expense after a reasonable number of warnings are sent to you. OR perhaps they were not showroom restored cars and he just wants to collect the insurance on them as if they were perfect.

Re: [MBZ] Decent looking low mileage 87 300D in Atlanta on CL
Maybe since it has cylenders the head will be flawless. If it were closer I'd look. Seems a little too good, you think?

When they have a rally in Michigan's capital, the gov't builds a tall chain link fence for them to stand behind and pays overtime to a hundred cops. And the local newspaper does a dozen or two articles vilifying them, which amounts to about a million dollars worth of free advertising. What a waste.

Now, if the Lung Association wants to put on a 5k for a fundraiser, then the city of Lansing will provide a couple of dozen cops and send the association the bill for overtime.
