Re: [MBZ] missing coolant

[Jim Cathey]

The w140 is making coolant disappear.


SDL was doing that.  Intermittent pinhole leak in
the hose to the heater core, right where it came
off the head.  Maddening.

Wrong target, mao.  The voting system isn't perfect but the real problem is
the electorate who are both mis-educated (which is worse than ignorant) and
greedy.  Some say it is greedy to want to keep what you earn but I say it is
greedy to demand to get what someone else earned.

Re: [MBZ] Why we must go to yard sales...... 3y5y8y8y

[Scott Ritchey]

Yes, but you need to check it out.  Springfield XD pistols come from
Croatia, Browning rifles are made in Japan, etc.  Ruger, S&W, Mossberg,
Remington, and others (especially Henry) are all US, as far as I know.  On
the other hand, like cars, several "foreign" brands are US made (Beretta,
FNH, etc.)  

US made ammo has been scarce (hording) since Newtown.  They say that
American ammo is the best but much of what's available comes from Russia,
Eastern Europe, or the Far East these days.  

Judging by the scarcity of guns and ammo, the knee-jerk legislative response
to Newtown has dramatically increased the stockpile of guns and ammo in US
civilian homes.

[MBZ] missing coolant

[clay]

The w140 is making coolant disappear.   

#1 boy drove the car after the fan bearings failed and the engine got too hot.  
There was steam under the hood.  When the car went to the indy for repair, 
leakage of coolant was noted, but no viable explanation or investigation took 
place.

The car has been back on the road for about a month, and last week the low 
coolant light came on.  I had him check level, which was low.  He wanted to 
fill up with coolant, but I advised water and added about a  gallon with about 
12 oz of G-05.  I figured the indy had not topped off the tank, and it was 
steam lost.  Told the boy to keep an eye on it and check his fluids every day.  
Put a gallon of water in his trunk, for emergency use.  Over the past week he 
has used all the fluid.

SO, I worried it might be head gasket, but though better that it could be hose 
failure to the monovalve.  I have tried to get data on just where to look for 
said hose or clamp failure, but no luck from EPC and other interweb sites.  
Anybody know where I should look on the actual car for hose at firewall?  Car 
is 92 300SE, M104 engine.  It really blows ICE COLD.

Re: [MBZ] Mail Delivery Failure 3y5y8y8y

[arche...@embarqmail.com]

Two days ago?  Since this last one, they were much more than two days 
ago, you were notified, and you didn't reply; something I understood at 
the time because you were out working according to other members.
What I don't understand is why you continue to have this problem when 
similar groups I am on never have this sort of problem.  Do they have 
better spam filters?
However, since this is a free list and you are running it gratis, I have 
no personal argument with you, and I appreciate your having taken it 
over and run it since the previous list owner.  Except for this 
infuriating "blackballing", you've done a good job of running the list; 
especially since its morphed into more of an "everything else in 
addition to Mercedes" list than a focused Mercedes list such as when 
Marshal (r.i.p.) was on it.
Nevertheless, it would seem the whole problem could have been avoided if 
you had simply whitelisted all the regulars on the list when the problem 
first occurred.  Come to think of it, you "did" whitelist me when I 
contacted you (or maybe you simply adjusted the filters) several months 
or more ago when the problem first happened to me.  Okay, so you say I'm 
whitelisted now?  Hopefully that will solve the problem.
As far as the so-called "Hitler List" is concerned, I was on it, may 
still be on it, and had no problems at all; even bought under-the-dash 
parts from one of the members IIRC.  However, the amount of valid 
information about Mercedes was much less than on this list.

(End of rant and end of discussion on my part.)

Re: [MBZ] Why we must go to yard sales...... 3y5y8y8y

[Dieselhead]

Good one Gerry!


Sometime this year, we taxpayers will again receive another 
'Economic Stimulus' payment. This is indeed a very exciting program, 
and I'll explain it by using a Q & A format:


Q. What is an 'Economic Stimulus' payment?
A. It is money that the federal government will send to taxpayers.
Q. Where will the government get this money?
A. From taxpayers.
Q. So the government is giving me back my own money?
A. Only a smidgen of it.
Q. What is the purpose of this payment?
A. The plan is for you to use the money to purchase a 
high-definition TV set, thus stimulating the economy.

Q. But isn't that stimulating the economy of China?
A. Shut up.

 Below is some helpful advice on how to best help the U.S. economy 
by spending your stimulus check wisely:  If you spend the stimulus 
money at Walmart, the money will  go to China or Sri Lanka.  If you 
spend it on gasoline, your money will go to the Arabs.  If you 
purchase a computer, it will go to India, Taiwan or  China.  If you 
purchase fruit and vegetables, it will go to Mexico, Honduras and 
Guatemala.  If you buy an efficient car, it will go to Japan or 
Korea.  If you purchase useless stuff, it will go to Taiwan.  If you 
pay your credit cards off, or buy stock, it will go to management 
bonuses and they will hide it offshore.


 Instead, keep the money in America by: 1) Spending it at yard 
sales, or 2) Going to ball games, or 3) Spending it on prostitutes, 
or 4) Beer or 5) Tattoos. (These are the only American businesses 
still operating in the U.S.)


Conclusion: Go to a ball game with a tattooed prostitute that you 
met at a yard sale and drink beer all day !


 No need to thank me, I'm just glad I could be of help.

I have a drawer full of hand wrenches on racks, and a drawer of sockets.

All the sockets are on rails, so as long as every clip on the rail has a socket

Tool shadowing
This involves specifying a specific space for each tool. It
should be designed in such a way as to quickly determine if a
tool is missing. A popular method is to use some type of foam
product and cut out spots for each tool. In a toolroom
environment, walls can be used with pegboard and hooks.
The item is then outlined and shadowed.


Interesting. Do you go as far as pegboard and hooks or foam with cutouts?

The Catalog Descriptions for the two courses are:

ELCT 203: Electronic Devices. (4 units)
Study of amplifiers, oscillators, integrated circuits, and operational
amplifiers. Computer solutions of electronic circuits.

ELCT 204L: Electronics Lab. (2 units)
Advanced laboratory measurements and design. Measurements using AC and DC
meters, ohmmeters, oscilloscopes, signal generators, and pulse
generators. Computer circuit stimulation.

So, it looks that that's not a part of the curricula.

I have looked into them and found they are indeed amazing devices. I
thought of using one with a GPS module to provide timing to measure
high-stability frequency standards.

Well, first of all, this isn't a website. *smiles*

There are forums.  Someone here is involved in one -
superturbodiesel.com maybe?

I don't like them.  But maybe you will.  We'll be sorry to see you

Double the current!  And better low speed output to boot!

Sweet!

Now, just think of all the electric goodies you can add now that
you have more current available...  Electric heated seats,  rear
window de-fogger, power windows, thumper-style stereo system.  I
don't know _how_ you have managed to survive flying that 'plane

[MBZ] Why we must go to yard sales...... 3y5y8y8y

[arche...@embarqmail.com]

Sometime this year, we taxpayers will again receive another 'Economic 
Stimulus' payment. This is indeed a very exciting program, and I'll 
explain it by using a Q & A format:


Q. What is an 'Economic Stimulus' payment?
A. It is money that the federal government will send to taxpayers.
Q. Where will the government get this money?
A. From taxpayers.
Q. So the government is giving me back my own money?
A. Only a smidgen of it.
Q. What is the purpose of this payment?
A. The plan is for you to use the money to purchase a high-definition TV 
set, thus stimulating the economy.

Q. But isn't that stimulating the economy of China?
A. Shut up.

 Below is some helpful advice on how to best help the U.S. economy by 
spending your stimulus check wisely:  If you spend the stimulus money at 
Walmart, the money will  go to China or Sri Lanka.  If you spend it on 
gasoline, your money will go to the Arabs.  If you purchase a computer, 
it will go to India, Taiwan or  China.  If you purchase fruit and 
vegetables, it will go to Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala.  If you buy an 
efficient car, it will go to Japan or Korea.  If you purchase useless 
stuff, it will go to Taiwan.  If you pay your credit cards off, or buy 
stock, it will go to management bonuses and they will hide it offshore.


 Instead, keep the money in America by: 1) Spending it at yard sales, 
or 2) Going to ball games, or 3) Spending it on prostitutes, or 4) Beer 
or 5) Tattoos. (These are the only American businesses still operating 
in the U.S.)


Conclusion: Go to a ball game with a tattooed prostitute that you met at 
a yard sale and drink beer all day !


 No need to thank me, I'm just glad I could be of help.

Re: [MBZ] Mail Delivery Failure 3y5y8y8y

[Kaleb C. Striplin]

I am confused as to what you mean the problem has returned?  What 
problem?  If you mean a problem as to your mail getting sent back 
by the spam filters, then did you not see the email instructions 
sent out a day or 2 ago that if anyone is getting their messages 
bounced back to send me an offlist email requesting to be 
whitelisted?  I do not see any email from you on this matter.  
Every request I have had,  has been added and has no longer 
received bounces that I know of.  If somebody has, please let me 
know.  So, no problem has returned, I think the problem is failure 
to request whitelist addition.  I added you to the white list and 
you should be good to go.  There are plenty of other forums out 
there if that is your thing, or the R/E Hitler list might be a 
good choice for you.  Just don't make anyone mad there or disagree 
with them and you will be fine.  If you want a link to sign up, 
let me know.  They may approve your membership at some point in 
the future.

I like to consider that you get what you pay for, seeing this is a free 
service, I understand that it is run on a shoestring budget.
The OzBenz forum has been having issues with it's server for a few 
months now, it's also free, so I am not going to complain too much.

Re: [MBZ] OT: Snowmobile repair

I spent my day removing the 11 hydraulic cylinders from my SL500 and shipping 
them off to Top Hydraulics in Oregon for rebuilding.

While the job wasn't terribly challenging, it did involve working in a lot of 
(car) body cavities, resulting in my hands and arms resembling hamburger.  I 
would liken it to replacing the heater blower motor in a 114 or 108, but less 
time consuming.

I'll get the rebuilt cylinders back the end of this coming week, and since 
we're observing a Federal holiday a week from Monday, I'll have a three day 
weekend to put them back in and get my top working as intended.

That worked out very nicely.

Yesterday, I was vacuuming out the back of our refrigerator and put it
together with a set of 1/4" Craftsman deep well sockets. As I was putting
them away, I remembered that I had purchased them when I had been laid
off a job in Colorado Springs (helping design the ALEXIS small satellite
for the AeroAstro Company) to use on repairing a dishwasher. I reflected
how I had been reluctant to purchase them at the time, but how they have
been very helpful in the years since.

I don't know. Being a public university, I would expect they are required
to post jobs for all to see. Some companies also have that policy, but
sometimes they write job ads tailored to one specific person. I ran
across a couple of those last week.

That's probably true, since my Ph.D. is in physics. I did, however, come
in second at John Brown University for an engineering position, which is
what my Bachelors degree is in and is the field I worked in for 20 years
before I went back to graduate school.

[MBZ] OT: Snowmobile repair

[Curt Raymond]

While you guys are all arguing about which of our worthless political factions 
is worse I've been hard at work putting a snowmobile engine back together.

It had leaking crank seals which is an easy way to lean out your mixture and 
burn down a piston. Lucky for me one of the seals leaked on the points and 
dirtied them so I lost spark before I got into too much trouble.
I pulled the engine on the 2nd, new seals came shortly after but of course as 
soon as I started tearing into it I realized I needed a gasket I hadn't 
ordered. That came yesterday.

Today I put it all back together. I sealed the case halves with the leftover 
Hylomar from the 240D head gasket job. (MB content) In fact that job helped me 
in 2 ways, I wanted to chase the threads in the case and used the tap set I 
bought for the 240D job.
Actually now that I think of it, I bought the rubber gloves for the 240D job 
and Fred bought the rags I used for final cleaning on the case halves...

Anyway I want to let the hylomar thicken over night, it never really hardens 
after all and I still need to clean the points again. DeoxIT to the rescue!

Don't despair, a friend of mine has been an adjunct at a local university
for going on six academic years now.  It is the new "contract" position, it
doesn't pay well, necessarily, but they will try to keep you around if they
like you.

That said, I agree that it's wise to keep looking, and to breathe while you
are doing so. :)

Best,
Tim

You have been pursuing a teaching career move since before you were out-sized. 
It may be temporary but, it will lead to greater things.

Re: [MBZ] OT: A temporary job for Craig

[Richard Hattaway]

I'm pretty sure the hiring of large numbers of people is on the decline.  Full 
time hiring of anybody other than a college graduate ( no experience ) or a 
graduate that's been out 5 years ( major experience ) is on the decline because 
nobody can predict their company's future beyond the end of their management's 
nose.  Hire the wrong guy, and you're likely to loose your job.  Management 
must have a scapegoat.  *They* certainly didn't make a mistake.  

So the armed forces, teaching, and government in general, will continue to hire 
large numbers of folks.  Some companies will be around for a while longer.  
Their girth makes it a necessity to hire in numbers.  Thinks IBM, General 
Electric, Siemens.  

The economy has been driven for years by small business.  In the same vein, it 
has been driven for years by temporary labor.  I've found by personal 
experience that working in a job that you know will end in 3-5 years max is a 
good thing.  You get to experience all kinds of new things, and your network 
gets huge in a hurry.  For the last 5 years I've been 'retired' but still work 
for a company that contracts their engineering services all over Piedmont North 
Carolina.  Variety is truly the spice of life.

I find that I don't miss the 'security' of an 8-5 job because that security 
really doesn't exist any more anyway.   I left my last 'permanent' job in 1992. 
 I much prefer that my future not be at the whim of some blockhead who is only 
interested in securing the guarantee of his job's existence.   Hand me the 
tiller, sir, I know how to get where I'm going, and I sure as hell don't need 
your incompetence and inefficiency  getting in my way.

I'm glad that Craig took the 'temp' job.  Everything on earth is temporary.  He 
knows the size of his temporary window, which is something unknown by many of 
the 'permanently' employed among us.  He can function within this window to 
prove himself to the present powers that be, or promote himself to others.  I 
wish him success and happiness.
