Sounds like you need to clean and grease the battery terminals, maybe replace a cable if there is corrosion under the jacket.

My adventure was trying to figure out why the SDL hates me.

This has happened before. I got in after she had been sitting for a few weeks. Figured I should give her legs a stretch. I gave her a glow, then tried to light off. Everything went dead. No lights, no dash, nothing. All manner of key turns, and nothing. Drove the other w126. When I got back, I hoped everything had reset, but it had not. Plugged the charger in and set it on 50amp light off. Everything behaved, and she lit off.

Battery was not dead. A little low on power when hooked to the charger at 1amp. Five hours later, it is all topped up. Maybe I need to chase wires and see if there is corrosion.

And you are trying to buy up a bunch of cars, so it sounds like you need to move to Oklahoma.

Replaced what appeared to be the original factory shocks on the front of my 98 wagon tonight with a set of Bilsteins from FCP Euro. Best price and ordered them with free shipping and still got them in three days.

Took a short test drive and the ride is noticeably better. Looking forward to the commute tomorrow to really put it through its paces.

Got a new door check for the driver's door I'll put on the car Saturday. No more "clickety-click" when opening and closing the door.

Got my new 1911, too. I’m thinking about playing hooky tomorrow so I can go to the range and shoot it….I’m going to go look at an SKS tomorrow, too.
