If I go and I like it I will have cash money.
Cash money talks.
How much cash money should be waved at them if it proves to be as described?
$9k?  $8.5K

You're kidding! Next Monday I'll be in L.A. visiting the oldest daughter.
She is coming to the States for business back from Tokyo for a few days. 
You kids have a nice time and be careful.

I shall ask for records. My youngest girl child told me that the E320, in
the Polar White, looked like an "old man's car". She doesn't think her dad
needs an "old man's car" yet, bless her heart.

There are cheap used cars to be had that will get mileage close to
what a hybrid will get you in real-world driving.  I've thought
seriously about an '80s Honda CRX or Toyota MR2 for a commuter.  Fun,
pretty reliable, and probably 25 mpg city and 35+ highway if you are
gentle with the right foot.

Of course, they weigh not much more than a ton, and crunch up like a
pop can in an accident.  You pays your money and you takes your
choice.

What's really strange is that now I know somebody who's still driving a 
1987 Honda. Obviously you don't live in Michigan, where Hondas die
of terminal rot in 10-15 years.

Re: [MBZ] gas v diesel prices

[Robert Rentfro]

Diesel is $4.00 at the Loves on I10 on my way to the Nuke plant and that was
my cheap go to place. I guess she'll have to start driving the 300D and I'll
drive the Acura. They get the same mileage and with unleaded only at 3.08
right now it'll save me some coin.

[Robert Rentfro]

Sometime in the next month or so both of my cars (the '77 300D and the '87
Acura Legend) will have the exact same mileage on them. The Acura has around
1926XX  and the 300D has 192295. Isn't that strange?

"I'd like to see numbers on injuries/fatalities per accident by

WOW! That looks like a nice car!  I wonder what the interior looks like.
LOW Miles.  Somebody should buy it, soon!  I was just telling my wife, I
wanted to sell her explorer so, I could get another Mercedes (she put the
Kybosh on that).   Wonder how long it would take to drive back from Phoenix?

Re: [MBZ] W220 rust

[Robert Rentfro]

I don't have a credit card. Renting a car is a pain but certain places will
allow the use of a debit cardbut they charge like $400 then credit what
you don't spend. 

I may have to break down and get a credit cardespecially if we go to
Japan.

I'm not sure what to use on the interior, I just do as the book says and
wipe it down with warm water and soap and dry.  I use Eagle One on the car
with leather, which is great.  I've used Lexoyl a few times, which I think
is total garbage.  I use Armorall on the tires, but  would be willing to try

  Hi, All.
Though not the oldest on the list. I can remember when, in 70-71 at 
the Getty station that I ran, premium gas was 38 cents and received 
many complaints that the price was 2 cents too high!
My latest acquisition is now running on 5 cylinders. Some As..le 
Fumble fingered high I.Q. Type Mekanique, replaced the delivery valve 
seals and left 2 of them loose. (20nm, loosen, 20nm, loosen, 35nm, e viola)
Many thanks to our dear departed Doctor Professor Booth!

Re: [MBZ] What Should I Start Amassing?

[Robert Rentfro]

Mitch typed:

"I'd unhook the breather tube from the valve cover, or reroute it to a jar.
If the car quits burning oil and sprays it out the breather instead,
you might see if there's a big gap in the breather tube in the valve
cover. 

If the oil still comes out the exhaust without the breather dumping
oil in the intake, it's got to be coming through the rings, valve
guides, or head gasket. If the car passes a cylinder leakdown test,
I'd think the valve stem seals would be worth trying."

AH HA!  A troubleshooting plan. The nuke in me likes it.

I had a 450SL that smoked vilely due to damaged seals on
one cylinder.  (It also fouled that plug quickly.)  I replaced
only the two and drove it for thousands of miles and several
years before selling the car.  Cured the problem completely.
It wasn't all that hard on that particular car.

Re: [MBZ] NOW Opacity Test What Should I Start Amassing?

[Robert Rentfro]

Is the temp sender in the engine compartment (where the wire connects to) or
elsewhere?

Very likely a bad temperature sender.  Replace it, and have someone  
do the usual thermo wax test on the thermostat housing to verify.

It's possible, although unlikely, that the thermostat housing is  
leaking past the thermostat, but I think you would notice that.

Peter typed:

"Sounds like the Vienna I started a couple weeks ago -- full decoction  
mash, lower volume that I intended ( 5 rather than my standard 6), so  
the initial gravity is 1.058.

I made a DoppleBock for Big Brew Day last year that took for bleeding  
ever, but turned out wonderful.  Initial gravity was 1.080, I think,  
took months to ferment out.

What are you using for hops -- I bought a year's supply in the fall,  
before the Hop Crisis, so I'm OK for now, but our local microbrewer  
(also a club member) is reduced to using Argentinean Cascade."


Since I can't drink anymore I wonder if I'm still allowed to read posts like
that?

Bob,

In AZ, the limit for passenger diesels is 20% Opacity.  That's a lot  
of smoke.  And a little secret  Plan on taking it for the  
emissions test when the wind is blowing!
Back when I had the '80 300SD, the worst it blew was 4% and when it  
was windy, it went down to 1%..

And before you go in, run it hard and keep it hot..

Take care,

Chuck

Re: [MBZ] NOW Opacity Test What Should I Start Amassing?

[Robert Rentfro]

Good idea, Chuck. 
Speaking of keeping it hot, I've been through three t-stats (two from Rusty
I think) and with all of them the hottest it ever gets is just to the tic
mark above the 110 degrees F. There was one time, when after removing the
top hose to put Tom's AC clutch on, I neglected to top off the radiator it
ran at 175 degrees F but when I looked in the radiator I could see no level.

What's going on here? This car has always run cold.

It gets mini ones daily getting on the freeway to drive to the old nuke
plant. The entrance ramp and the first two miles of freeway is a nice
upgrade and from the moment I turn onto the entrance ramp until I hit 80,
it's floored.

[MBZ] What Should I Start Amassing?

I'm at 190K miles. Oil usage is consistently at 1 qt per 650 miles or so.
It's burning, not dripping or getting into the air cleaner housing. Smokes
more now on acceleration and at idle. Suppose it's time to address it. 

What do you think I'll have to do? What should I start buying now from
Rusty? Who has a good step by step guide they can send me? I think I'll have

Complete leather interior?  Meaning door panels and seat covers and

Really?  Is that for a 123?  Are 124 prices comparable?

Seems too good to be true.  And here I've been looking forever for a
wrecked gasser 124 with a pristine leather interior in a color I like
so I can swap it into mine.

(I'm at work and eBay is blocked here, so I can't look at the original

I love Rusty's subtle "BUY FROM RUSTY" responses.

Remember, he does support the group and he's a great resource & you
should buy from him even if he's a few $$$ higher.

Subject: Re: [MBZ] Early 70s 200Ds, 220Ds

Yes, though I have related it a year or so ago.  I was a student at
Lynchburg College [great school, BTW] and was heading to DC in 1971 in my
'62 220Sb to visit an old roommate.  I was going into an 'S' curve at 2:30
AM in the pouring down rain. A Camero was coming out of the curve and all I
remember [for the next two weeks] is saying 'that car is going too fast' ...
A trucker who saw the wreck in his mirrors said it was a Keystone Cop sort
of image with both cars going up and then smashing down.  I would estimate
my speed at 50 when she hit me,  and there were 14' of skid marks behind my
car, none at all from hers, and she was going a good deal faster. My car
stopped at the scene and hers took a bounce.  At that time they did not do
blood alcohol levels on corpses, but she was driving her boyfriends car with
her brand new driver's license, and speeding in the rain at 2:30 AM on a
curving 2 lane after leaving a party. She was either drunk or terminally
stupid.  My car did not have the lap belts installed [long story], which
would have killed me from the angle of impact, but the flat MB steering
wheel prevented any internal injuries.  I think with a full modern restraint
and airbag system I would not have been seriously injured. The top of the
wheel hit me at tooth level and took all of them out as well as my lower jaw
[they found and refitted 4 of 5 pieces and most all of the teeth], and also
caused a C-2/3 spinal break [C-2/3 controls the heart and breathing I think,
which is why I believe hitting at an angle with a lap belt would have been
worse than hitting straight on without one].  My right knee took out an
add-on AC unit, cutting the knee almost through and sending my smashed femur
into daylight [well, not daylight at 2:30 AM].  Multiple compound fractures,
some closed ones, and cuts all over.  I had an opportunity to see the car
three months later when I got out of the hospital and didn't recognize it.
The crumple zones and flat wheel did their job, though.  She [Camero driver]
died from being impaled on the steering wheel; the kid beside me died from
hitting the side pillar [he was asleep with his head against the side
window].  Kid in the rear seat and the passenger in her car got off pretty
well, considering. All in all nothing I would recommend getting into, but it
did increase my already strong love of MB.

[MBZ] Things That Happen While Fueling

[Robert Rentfro]

Went to get fuel at Safeway since everywhere else fuel has reached Safeway's
$3.45 price. While mashing in my PIN, I heard the unmistakable klatta klatta
coming up behind me and it turns out to be a sweet '79 300SD. The angle of
the sun doesn't allow me to see the driver but I hear the door close.
Someone approaches and I hear in a heavy German accent, "How are you young
man? Long time no see" It turns out to be an elderly woman from whom I
almost bought a '68 300SEL from probably five or six years ago. At that time
she had just lost her husband, a retired Pan Am pilot. She wanted to sell
his 300SEL. Her price, as I recall, was high but I do remember seeing the
300SD under a car cover in the carport. She told me she had no intention of
selling it, but I could look. She helped me remover the cover and I almost
couldn't breath..it was perfect and had 41K miles on it. "I will be driving
this when I get my eyes fixed" she told me. I told her when she's ready to
sell, let me know and she said, "Zweifellos" and I was on my way. I cannot
believe she remembered me today. Her 300SD is still perfect and it now has
52K miles on it. She said she sees me around town and she still has my
number to call me when she's ready to sell. Crazy.

The Eli-defense, those boys were exhausted on the last lame Pats drive. They
really stepped up.

the pats have a pretty formidable defense, albeit not dominating.

the giants defense really stepped up.  superhuman intensity.  i've never
seen a team step up on the post season the way the giants did this year.

Re: [MBZ] O.T. Dat Foosball is Over

[Robert Rentfro]

As a matter of fact, the best commercial was the Reebok k just on PTI on
ESPN where the delivery guy brought Mercury Morris a packagea game ball
from Eli...and the last shot is a road sign saying, "Welcome to
Perfectville, est. 1972, population, 1"

Nice.

Try cleaning the contacts where the monitor cable connects to the
video card, and the monitor end if it's a connector instead of
hardwired in. Otherwise, I suspect that the monitor is dead/dying.

Re: [MBZ] You asked for it

I think my all time driving one is when people are bombing along at the
speed limit on either the freeway or on a street and they slow way down
simply because John Law is visible somewhere. It's dumb on a street and
dangerous on the freeway.

I'm gonna join in this nebulous thread by indulging myself in a small
pet-peeve share. Hmmm, which one to share?
Oh okay, here:

At a four way stop (or a three way stop) I wish folks would really just know
the law and follow it. Things would be so simple, and so much time saved.

Instead, most seem to want to play the eye contact and wave-on game. Call me
antisocial (I am) but I am not required to interact on that level with other
drivers. I am required to follow the law. I love it when I don't make eye
contact at a four-way, and the other driver, so convinced that eye contact
is the law, all but refuses to go, even though they were clearly there
first. Given enough time, I'll pull my keys out of the ignition and show
them to the indignant driver.

Re: [MBZ] OT Taking a Poll on Tailgating - Not a Rant

[Robert Rentfro]

People from CA have a bad habit of driving in the left lane while doing at
or just below the speed limit. I will sometimes come up right behind them
and tailgate them in an effort to get them to get the heck in the right
lane. I don't flash my lightthis isn't the Autobahn.

Was not trying to condone tailgating, I guess my point is that when  
you get into a pissing match on the expressway eventually someone is  
going to end up hurt or dead.

I stand by my position though that if you are impeding traffic in the  
left lane you should move right.  You are not there to enforce the  
speed limits (unless you happen to be a law enforcement officer).   
Sudden braking in the left lane, moving right to thwart a pass on the  
right after you've already blocked the other driver to the left  to  
"teach a tailgater a lesson" is as childish as the tailgating, and is  
escalating the situation.

I've been in a car with a friend who was pulled by a state trooper  
for driving in the left lane.  The left lane is for passing, and he  
was not passing, he was just driving there.  The cop approached from  
the rear, my friend did not move right and though he was not driving  
under the limit he was pulled over.  You cannot lollygag in the left  
lane and you cannot drive there pacing the traffic to the right.   
"Slower traffic keep right" is what the signs say.  Speeding is a  
separate and unrelated offense, as is tailgating.

Re: [MBZ] why america is finished (pizza, not mercedes)

[Robert Rentfro]

You can make mad money making pizzas if you're careful. Back in the day
(early '80s) when my brother=in-law and I owned some sub shops near Bradley
University in Peoria, IL, we had a small freestanding building.
Long story short, made good money...sold thriving business to a guy who
didn't appear like a putz, he tries to cut corners to make more money and
went belly up in less than a year.

what do most americans eat for pizza?

Most of the pizza available near me is either Pizza Hut, Dominoes or others 
trying to immitate them.  There's also Round Table which is better, but it 
doesn't do anything for my pizza craving other than to remind me that I need

some REAL PIZZA!  .  There's a place on the southern Washington coast (Long 
Beach) called Chico's Pizza that makes their pizzas with all fresh 
ingredients piled high atop a reasonably thin and crunchy crust.  Now that's

a pizza!
