The answer to that has ever been yes.  And no.

I just use a gas price app on my iPhone.  It finds the cheapest gas based on my 
location.

I don't use it for my car, but I do for the wife's.

FYI - my last tank of fuel in the S500 jumped to 17.4 MPG from he mid 16s.  Not 
exactly sure, but I'll see if the trend continues with the next fillup of top 
tier fuel.

[MBZ] M119 Cam Oiler Tubes

2013-10-12 Thread Dan Penoff
Anyone ever done this job?

Looks pretty straightforward for the most part.  My oil pressure is not what I 
would like it to be at hot idle, and I suspect that I might have a leaky or bad 
cam oiler tube or two.  I definitely have the OE plastic tubes in my engine.

I can get a set of OEM aluminum tubes with new O rings from a W140 buddy for 
$230. He gets them off engines at the PnP and cleans them in an ultrasonic 
cleaner and puts new O rings on them.

As I understand it they can leak or the plastic plugs in the plastic OE ones 
can pop out, causing oi pressure to drop.  They may or may not cause the 
lifters to make noise depending on how bad/many of them are leaking.  MB 
changed the design to prevent this from happening, as I understand it.  At 
least they made metal versions of the tubes in later production models.

It's one of those not if but when sort of things.

This is sort of worst case, but Gump had the front riser fail.  It sheered the 
riser, the internal oil channel was exposed.  Oil pressure went to 0.

So it took them ten days to finish shutting down private homes and

now they're finally getting around to shutting down nonessential

I donated my IBM luggable to Goodwill when we moved two years ago. It came
with an 8088, 256kb memory, and dual 5¼ floppies. I had to buy a new BIOS
to install an ST225 hardrive in on of the drive bays.
I bought it with an AVL board (that had it's own CPU running CPM) and used
it for many years programming multi-image shows. Powerpoint and LCD
projectors killed that business.

Pentagon: Shutdown still hurting Defense Department, in spite of military
pay law
  The congressman who introduced legislation to ensure active duty
  military personnel would get paid and have support staff during the
  government shutdown on Thursday accused the Pentagon of purposefully
  misinterpreting the law for political reasons.

Furloughs push U.S. air traffic system near yellow warning
  Oct 10 (Reuters) - The U.S. air traffic control system is close to
  hitting a yellow alert level as people who keep radar and other
  equipment running remain out on furloughs due to the government
  shutdown, the head of the controllers union said on Thursday.

The whole point is to make the shutdown as painful as possible for as many
people as possible. Bill Clinton never would have dreamed of doing that
when the Gingrich house shut government down.

Then again, Clinton did care about this country and wanted to lead it well.

[MBZ] ON TOPIC! OM617 Injection pump delivery valves

2013-10-12 Thread Craig
I'd look it up myself, but my shop manuals are packed up in boxes and
buried in the back of a 20' sea container sitting on our driveway

What is the value of the torque for OM617 delivery valves?

I recently got a set of delivery valve springs, copper washers, and
rubber o-rings from Central Motive Power in Albuquerque.

FYI, the part numbers are:

   Springs: 1414 611 029

Copper Washers: 1410 105 021

Rubber O-rings: 1460 210 321

My goodness, here I post an on-topic email and the response is totally
off topic   :-) 


 Where are you going? - sea container.

I am going nowhere right now. When we had 1400 ft^2 of tile laid, we had
to have a place to get stuff out of the house, so we rented a sea
container. We are still using it because we are in the process of
painting the old bedroom wing of the house and have three bedrooms and a
hallway storage area empty.


 Another thing I saw mention this week was LANL waste being as bad as

I have heard nothing about what you say.

They have indeed suspended shipments of TRU (transuranic, meaning
elements heavier than uranium) waste from TA-54 to the WIPP (Waste
Isolation Pilot Project at Carlsbad, NM) because of the shutdown. I don't
recall exactly what the level of wastes -- high or low -- being shipped
to WIPP is.

Interesting!  The last thing I heard about WIPP was in reference to the

The Waste Isolation Pilot Project in Carlsbad is not the waste storage
facility in Nevada, which is probably what you are thinking of. That
site, I'm sure was intended to store high-level wastes (the really hot
stuff left over from refueling an atomic fission power plant, for
example).
