[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

Remember the old "joke" about what is your plane ran on winders?  Now it 
already is true, not only for planes, but also for cars.


Those midair reboots can really be rough.

One of the tricks with Dells was to pull the plug, take a screwdriver 
and short between each prong to the ground prong.   Another is to pull 
the battery, wait 6  min, reboot.

I was on an airplane a coupla weeks ago that had to be rebooted a 
coupla times, and it still didn't work.  Seriously, start it, shut it 
down, wait 10 minutes, fire it up again, lather rinse repeat. Then 
move all the pax to the next plane over.  Same procedure with a 
battery disconnect might work?

In Mass he had all kinds of appellations given his long undistinguished 
tenure nursing on the public tap.  And enriching various fam and friends 
while becoming a rent boy.  The horrible botox and cosmetic surgery 
efforts are more recent, it's the kind of thing your good buddy would 
have to take you aside after a coupla glasses of a nice crisp pinot 
grigio, or perhaps more appropriately a sassy but not quite impertinent 
burgundy blanc, and say, "Dude, you really gotta get your head right on

[MBZ] And the sounds of Silence deafen

[clay via Mercedes]

I got in the S430 (w220 junk) this morning and was met with silence.  The radio 
was on, but nobody was talking.  Odd.  Changed to AM, and nothing.  No weather 
channel speaking either.  I put a tape in and it was silent.  Tried the NAV and 
it did not speak either.  I tried all the volume buttons up and down, with no 
change.

Is there a fuse that handles only the sound?  I am thinking this is some build 
quality issue that will require the complete removal of a bunch of expensive 
bits to remedy.

[Max Dillon via Mercedes]

This is like the puzzle with the fox, the chicken, and the bag of corn that you 
need to carry across the river in a canoe that can only carry one item plus you 
at a time.  The fox wants to eat the chicken who wants to eat the corn...

Clay drives the car to his son in the Dakotas, who drives him back west.  Mao 
rides the dog to get the car in the Dakotas, drives it to Curly, rides the dog 
back.  Curly adds the car to his caravan east for vacation, delivers the car to 
Floyd, who drives it down to Tampa, rides the dog back to Charleston.

 Both the outbound and return trip. He will just have to wait at one location 
until somebody happens to be going that proper direction.

Re: [MBZ] 2.3 Liter 4 Cylinder?

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

Yup.  M102 is 2/3 of an M103, but with about the same HP.  They keep the 
102 revved higher.  I had wunna them.  It was GREAT, I traded it and a 
123 300TD to buy the 124 TD.  no regrets, but I miss the 230TE some 
times.  SWMBO misses it more.


If ya buy it, I'll send ya a free oelfilter!With a 5 spd, it would 
be a great car, even for that money.


Ja, 190E2.3 Yuro would be the same engine.

Re: [MBZ] OT Sears / Kenmore dryer repair

[Meade Dillon via Mercedes]

On this dryer, no lint passes through the door.  Primary suction point for
lint is at the bottom edge of the front panel.  There is a lint screen that
pulls up for cleaning, and the frame that holds that screen in place can be
easily removed to clean out most of the suction side ducting before it goes
into the squirrel cage fan mounted on the front of the motor.  I haven't
done that in a while, it looked pretty good when I had the panel off and so
I vacuumed out the end right before the fan.  I confess that I could have
taken the screen frame out and gotten a bit more; if my house burns down
later this fall we'll know who to blame

Re: [MBZ] OT Sears / Kenmore dryer repair

[Max Dillon via Mercedes]

Yes, lint-clean-up was a major theme during the repair.  A few years ago the 
vent duct became detached from the back of the dryer for a month or two before 
I caught it.  The dryer was re-breathing lint, which probably contributed to 
the rear drum bearing failure.  There was an amazing amount of lint inside (and 
behind) the dryer, which all was vacuumed up.  The inside of the vent duct was 
pretty clean but also was vacuumed up.

Re: [MBZ] OT Sears / Kenmore dryer repair

[MG via Mercedes]

Max, did you take the duct covers off on the back of the dryer? I 
got one dryer from someone for my daughter. The thing would 
overheat and put out hardly any from the duct. Come to find out 
that the ducts inside the back of the dryer were almost totally 
plugged up with lint and sand. I decided that just G to do the 
same on our 20 year old dryer. Found some lint in there also so 
while you are at it

From: Max Dillon 




Today I did the deed, dryer is fixed!  Left the dryer in top of the washer for 
the repair.  Rick's description was the best, big ball mounted on the rear of 
the drum, rides in a plastic cup mounted on the rear wall of the dryer.  I 
bought the kit from appliance parts pro's, $24 delivered.  I also replaced the 
water lines to the washer while I had the stack pulled away from the wall.

Top of the dryer has spring clips at the front edge, hinge at the rear, YouTube 
videos show the way.

Looks like this particular Kenmore was made by Frigidaire.  Really a pretty 
easy job, but took about half a day because I spent a lot of time cleaning up 
17 years of accumulated lint and dust.

I did not (yet) replace the nylon strips that the front of the drum rides on, 
that'll be next.

Extra points to the posting, however, for not using the "always garaged"

Re: [MBZ] Storm reminder

[Floyd Thursby via Mercedes]

NOAA did some high-res satellite imagery of the 4 days after the storm 
that are pretty amazing.  I still need to look and see if they got me 
out on the beach Sunday morning 
http://storms.ngs.noaa.gov/storms/matthew/index.html


Kiawah did some surveys right after the storm and found in general 
100-120ft of beach and dunes disappeared.  It was quite a bit worse a 
bit further south at Edisto Island and beach.

Interesting! 
If the tributaries were dammed and canals built; something on the order of the 
California water system; it would seem that Great Plains agriculture would 
seldom if ever be short of water again.

[MBZ] The River

[rogerhga--- via Mercedes]

Curley, 
And from what I've read, the The River is still trying to go back to Texas. The 
Corp of Eng. keeps fighting it, but I imagine someday The River will win, 
especially if the New Madrid fault goes again as a big quake. Mother Nature can 
always out do any human activities.
