 It's set up and I've only used it as a mower (belly mower deck). It has 
 turf tires which also would not be great in a garden I guess. But I'll 
 check the model and get back to you.

[MBZ] With the fuel prices sky high...

...I bet this 85 190D 5 speed I have sitting around probably just shot 
up in value.  In fact, maybe I should put it into daily driver status.

What's wrong with a first year 126?
I don't recall any major teething pains.
The nice thing about 1981-1982 is I can buy license plates by weight, 
not by the $30k+ MSRP, in Michigan. A 4000lb car is something like $60, 
as opposed to $150ish for a 1983-1985 S class.

Re: [MBZ] 210 AC compressor clutch coil

2022-03-05 Thread Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes
It would have been easier to just swap the compressor but I was 
concerned about that rough bearing and I have to go to Little Rock next 
week so I did not have time to order a new one.  They were over $400 at 
flaps for a no name one.

He was right. Cooling fan had a blown fuse, which I discovered after I 
replaced the fan (oh, well, if the old one blew a fuse it was probably 
worth replacing).


AC had a dead clutch.
I decided it was cheaper to buy a used compressor for $35 than to buy 
a new clutch.
Then I decided it was easier to swap compressors than to swap clutches 
while leaving the compressor on the car.
Drained the new/used compressor, refilled with proper viscosity PAG, 
installed, vacuumed (Harbor Freight 2 stage pump) and recharged.

Zero problems in 6 years and 50kmi since then.

Re: [MBZ] Gas prices

2022-03-05 Thread mitch--- via Mercedes



Was stunned to pay $3.799 on Tuesday, then remembered Let's Go Putin.
Today it went up to 4.099, for Regular.
4.79 Diesel.
I never paid over $4 for 87 before.
Paid as high as 4.299 for Premium 10 years ago, and think I paid $4.55 
or more in NY in March of 2012.


Yesterday crude was up something like $7 in one day, to $115/42 gallons.
Was $67 just before New Year's, when I paid 2.83 for 87 Octane.

 Since this chain controls all fuel prices in the area it will soon be

No, as long as nothing partisan comes into the conversation. In fact, I’m

Well that's how it goes with repairing cars. You can pay with cash or you can 
pay with time and frustration.

[MBZ] 210 AC compressor clutch coil

2022-03-05 Thread Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes
It was a swine of a job but I swapped out the clutch coil. Ended up getting the 
car up on the lift and unbolting compressor. Took quite a while or trying to 
get the compressor in different positions to gain clearance enough to get c 
clips out. Put it all back together with coil and pulley from the parts 
compressor and she works. A lot cheaper than a new compressor and associated 
parts but sure was a pain in the ass.

I don’t think it’s really necessary to mention why or who might be responsible 
for the extremely high fuel prices. That can be discussed on Okie talk

 Just passed the next station of the local major chain and it was $4.92.
 Since this chain controls all fuel prices in the area it will soon be
 $4.92 everywhere.

Re: [MBZ] Gas prices and when will they affect used car prices

2022-03-05 Thread Scott Ritchey via Mercedes
Price at the pump is the canary in the coal mine.  Everything made using energy 
or hydrocarbons will cost more, providing it is even available.  We have been 
well and truly screwed by environmentalist dilatants and the ESG crowd.  The 
Ukrainians got screwed infinitely worse.  It doesn't stop there; expect global 
food shortages in 2022 and beyond except in the US and a few other 
self-sufficient places.

[MBZ] Ac clutch

2022-03-05 Thread Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes
Got car home. Clutch turns easy by hand. Pulled the wire to the clutch and 
clutch appears to be open. I double checked to make sure I was hitting the pin 
deep inside the connector and I appear to be. I have another compressor on the 
bench that appears to test good. These are super easy to remove while off the 
car but will be a challenge on the car. There is a c clip holding the pulley on 
then another one deep down at the bottom of the coil. I can remove everything 
just fine except for this last c clip. I’m probably going to have to unbolt the 
compressor and see if I can tilt it up enough to get the c clip pliers on it. 
After removing the front clutch plate off the hub I noticed it was sort of 
greasy behind there. I also noticed the pulley seems rough when spun by hand. I 
thing the bearing is going out. The parts compressor appears to have a good 
sooth spin to it. Compressor itself appears to work fine but beginning to 
wonder if it’s worth messing with or should I just replace the entire 
compressor?

Re: [MBZ] Gas prices and when will they affect used car prices

2022-03-05 Thread Bob Rentfro via Mercedes
Diesel hit $4.59 here. Many sellers are resurrecting old ad phrases like “good on gas’ or “gas saver” in their adds when listing their over-priced, clapped out Asian shitboxes.  We carp about this but we will pay what we have to pay. I just make sure I keep things full in the outside chance we suddenly can’t get fuel. AZBob Sent from Mail for Windows From: Curt Raymond via MercedesSent: Saturday, March 5, 2022 10:52 AMTo: Mercedes Discussion ListCc: Curt RaymondSubject: Re: [MBZ] Gas prices and when will they affect used car prices I fueled up my TDI at $4.59/gal last night, Angie scored $4.29. I'm tempted to fill a couple 5 gallon jugs at that price. The stations in the "big city" just east of us are asking $4.99...On a related note, used pickup truck prices seem to be coming down. I'm seeing 5 year old, 70k mile trucks in the $26k range again. I haven't seen any that age around in a year.

Just passed the next station of the local major chain and it was $4.92. Since 
this chain controls all fuel prices in the area it will soon be $4.92 
everywhere.

[MBZ] 2003 ML 320 - 183k miles - $1,500

2022-03-05 Thread Allan Streib via Mercedes
"First good offer will be accepted"

As opposed to other sellers who often reject the first good offer?

Not much in the way of pics or decription but doen't really look that bad 
aftermarket radio/head unit looks poorly fitted though.

I fueled up my TDI at $4.59/gal last night, Angie scored $4.29. I'm tempted to 
fill a couple 5 gallon jugs at that price. The stations in the "big city" just 
east of us are asking $4.99...
On a related note, used pickup truck prices seem to be coming down. I'm seeing 
5 year old, 70k mile trucks in the $26k range again. I haven't seen any that

Re: [MBZ] I think the AC clutch coil on the 99 e300 suddenly died

FIRST thing to check is any connectors down there.  Might just need cleaning
and tightening up.

[MBZ] I think the AC clutch coil on the 99 e300 suddenly died

2022-03-05 Thread Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes
Yesterday ac was working fine and later in the drive was not cooling. Ended up 
having the red ec light stay on. Pulled codes from panel and it came back with 
AC coil. I reset it and light went off but still no cooling. I will test it 
when I get back home but I think coil might have just died. It is charged and 
shows 6 on the panel reading for pressure which is about what it is when 
compressor not running. 

If it shows bad I will see if I have a good one off another compressor and swap 
them. I have done that before I do believe.
