Re: [MBZ] 190D shifter
Not bad really, the news of course made quite a stink over it but we only got around a foot. Rode the snowmobiles which was quite a gas, the snow was very light and powdery so the sleds just plowed, couldn't get on plane worth a hoot. Its nice to have some snow though, grass in February is wrong. -Curt Date: Sun, 12 Feb 2006 11:35:52 -0700 From: Bob Rentfro [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [MBZ] 190D shifter To: Mercedes Discussion List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset=iso-8859-1; reply-type=original Johnny B typed: I hear ya Curt, luckily the storm is concentrated mostly south of me.

Re: [MBZ] 190D shifter
Thats one way to look at it. Its kind of fun to spend my lunchbreak in the car fiddling around, then come back into work and declare I fixed something. Thats more than some of my coworkers accomplish all day. Unfortunately considering the blizzard we're having right now and my lack of a shop this shifter issue will have to be tackled by a real mechanic. -Curt Date: Sun, 12 Feb 2006 10:34:10 -0500 From: John Berryman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [MBZ] 190D shifter To: Mercedes Discussion List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; format=flowed On Sunday, February 12, 2006, at 09:45 AM, Curt Raymond wrote: Yeah I drove it Monday fine, Tuesday I road while my wife drove and she had trouble with it, took much fiddling.
