Here's one way to repair it.
We were talking about Autocross the other day, and this thing costs $5k plus 
donor car, seats and electrics. It's about as complicated as a VW sand rail.

A quick DuckDuckGo tells me that Grainger industrial supplies has the full line 
of Sabre products. 
Lots of Sabre and Defense Technology products at Amazon if you look for them by

Does this guy tell where quality mace/pepper spray can be purchased? companies 
that sell to police/sheriffs department usually won't sell to individuals who 
are not officers or detectives of various kinds. Amazon doesn't show anything 
but the usual cheap "made in China" items. Galls seems to be unclear about 
pepper spray (oleoresin?).

[MBZ] More Hidden Costs

I saw this today linked from a Rock Auto newsletter. I’m not taking sides or 
looking to start a dialogue, just found it interesting about the amount of 
energy it takes to make a new car, both gasoline and hybrid.

Fecal transplant begins with a sample of fecal matter taken from a screened
and healthy donor. The material is processed and mixed with a solution like
saline to make implantation easier. Once the solution is prepared, it's
introduced to the patient's colon through a simple, minimally-invasive
procedure like *colonoscopy, sigmoidoscopy or enema*.

Fecal transplant begins with a sample of fecal matter taken from a screened

saline to make implantation easier. Once the solution is prepared, it's
introduced to the patient's colon through a simple, minimally-invasive

The jury knows the facts better than any of us, and it wasn't a mistrial, they 
unanimously voted to acquit. The facts that the drunk idiot was too young to be 
legally drunk, and felt entitled to break the door down because he didn't know 
where he was, does not make the homeowner into a criminal.

Malicious prosecution with no intent to secure a conviction?
That's virtually impossible to prove, even when it's true, and in this case I 
think they expected a conviction. 

Some states have laws attempting to shift the cost of prosecution onto the 
convicts. 
In order to be fair, those states should also shift the cost of a successful 
defense onto the prosecutors. 
Mitch.

"A Massachusetts man charged with fatally shooting *a 15-year-old boy who
mistakenly knocked on his door looking for a friend *is headed to court.

Prosecutors say 42-year-old Jeffrey Lovell is scheduled to be arraigned on
a murder charge Monday in Chicopee District Court."

One guy was confronted with yelling crazy person pounding on the door. 
He armed himself and stood guard on the door. 
When the crazy person broke the window in the door, he fired, just one shot. 
Charged with murder, tried for manslaughter, for protecting himself from 
somebody who was taking his door apart but hadn't crossed the threshold yet.

Not guilty, but that doesn't make up for everything they put him through and

discussed the car, the fuel efficiency, how solid it was, and that it was 
pretty reliable at 326kmi (which she could not believe). She was intrigued. I 
told her I saw a newer one with fewer miles in better shape (that one with the 
bad fuel tank pump whatever) I could probably get for $1000. She was more 
intrigued. I might actually check in with that guy and see what the deal is, 
get the VIN and check with MB dlr and see if it would indeed be covered under 
recall or warranty or whatever. Then she could bank her nut for any ensuing 
repairs.

Mine was a later one and much less prone to the issues the 2000-2002 models 
had, thankfully. It did have the air suspension, but that’s a known issue and a 
one time fix. The engines are pretty bulletproof but the chassis’ have the 
issues on these.

That coupled with the bland and pedestrian styling makes them less than 
desirable to me.

Put in another qt.

it a lot, including one OC spray instructor, here:
https://www.ar15.com/forums/General/Best-pepper-spray/5-2187139/#i77329876

Michigan might be the only state that specifically bans the UV dye, can't have 
people going around making it easy to prosecute criminals, now can we?
NY bans the dye in a roundabout way, in NY you can use animal spray but not 
people spray, and everything with dye in it is of course people spray:

There's a u-toob vid of a self defense guy about using hornet / wasp
spray.  According to the vid, it is not effective.  Not fun, but won't
really stop a bad guy.  Not nearly as effective as real mace / pepper
spray.  He also warns that going cheap on your pepper spray is not smart.
Better quality products are well designed to be easy and accurate out to a
long distance, don't have as much risk that when you spray the perp you
will also disable yourself (mist won't come back onto you and into your

That looks pretty nice!  Standard transmission!  I'm not too crazy about
the color, and the price is BaT-level, but it looks to be a fine example.

Would need a close inspection to make sure this isn't an odometer roll-back.

The lady who was in charge of the truck driving course where I trained
told of an incident where she was driving over the road in her tractor
trailer rig and stopped at a truck stop.

Over the course of the evening, she was bothered by an amorous mail
trucker who would just not leave her alone. She already had used a
ratchet strap between the arm rests on her truck's doors to make sure he
could not get in, but he still would not leave her alson. Finally, after
enduring much harrasing by this fellow, including his getting up on her
truck's steps, she rolled her window down about 3" and sprayed him in the
face with wasp and hornet spray. She had no more problems after that.

Just ask for the last 8 characters of the VIN. That’s all the dealer needs.

On our Kenworth W900 with the Caterpillar 3406E, one of the things
The Shop in Moriarty suggested doing, and which suggestion I approved,
was putting ball valves in the hot water lines for that exact purpose.

My old security cameras that I keep operational do that as well. When a 
lightning strike occurs, I get five stills, with the middle one being the 
strike with everything lit like it was taken with IR black and white film.

I'd like to see someone make a high pressure "water pistol" mounted with a 
laser and filled with wasp and hornet spray. 
I've read several places that wasp and hornet spray will blind an assailant 
only temporarily if he manages to get to an ER in 30-45 minutes.
The can it comes in is big and awkward with no satisfactory way to aim it, 
although it probably is effective with a little practice since it shoots a 
pretty long stream.

On the E300, you could get a radiator hose clamp from FLAPS and pinch off The 
hose, or get a 3/4 ball valve to install in line and shut off the hot water.
