What would be ideal is folks still conserve energy and drive fuel 
efficient vehicles even with low prices.  Maybe that way the prices will 
stay low for a long time.

Panel told energy to be 'disproportionately affected' by virus

The head of the International Energy Agency warned senators yesterday that
the new coronavirus will have significant impacts on energy sectors, with
oil markets in particular facing major repercussions.

Pressed on the emerging global health threat, IEA Executive Director Fatih
Birol told the Energy and Natural Resources Committee that energy "will be
disproportionately affected by the coronavirus."

"The main reason being that in addition to economic activity going down,
mobility is negatively affected," Birol testified.

Falling demand is already being felt throughout global markets, sparking
the largest ever drop in a single financial quarter (*Energywire
*, March
5).

Birol noted that the aviation sector — which accounts for about 1% of the
global economy but 10% of oil demand — is particularly hard hit. "It is
very, very negatively affected," he said.

IEA will release its annual oil market report Monday in Paris and is
currently "revising down" oil numbers, Birol said.

That report was supposed to be released at the annual CERAWeek by IHS
Markit conference in Houston — which Birol noted was canceled because of
the coronavirus (*Energywire
*, March 2).

However, Birol also said he expects the fallout from the coronavirus and
the disease it causes, COVID-19, to be "temporary."

"Looking at fundamentals, oil demand is strong and global demand will
continue to increase," he said.

Pressed by Energy and Natural Resources Chairwoman Lisa Murkowski
(R-Alaska) about what happens if a COVID-19 outbreak lingers into the
summer, Birol conceded that a further downward revision would follow and
noted that Monday's report will include an "adverse case" scenario.

Sustained downward pressure domestically will be felt on shale production,
he said. Bloomberg reported

yesterday that Exxon Mobil Corp. is slowing drilling in Texas' Permian
Basin over virus fears.

*"Oil prices will experience a downward pressure*, and in the case of the
United States if this downward pressure continues for a long time, it may
have impact on the shale production," said Birol.

Responding to a question from Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.), Birol
said a global glut in solar panels should minimize the short-term impacts
on the solar sector, even though a "big chunk" of the panels comes from
China and other Southeast Asian countries.

"If the situation gets under control in a short period of time, we will not
see any problem because there is a surplus of solar panels in the world,"
he said. "But if it continues for over a year, we may see some bottlenecks."

Airport men’s restrooms.

Automagic urinal and toilet flush mechanisms, but most of the piss is all over 
the floor and splatter around the bowl interior, as of a terrible burrito/taco 
expulsion, but you do not need to touch a handle to flush.

Some have automagic soap dispersal, but most did not.  All were automagic water 
release.  Not that the things worked without having to wave your hands about in 
and around the damn thing before it would deign to come on, resulting in your 
hands touching the nozzle, basin or flooded counter, where somebody is sure to 
have spat or sneezed.

Ultra-magic paper towel dispenser or blowing of heated air device.  AGAIN, the 
things do not accurately detect a warm, wet hand and you end up touching 
something to get drying assistance.

Alaska has a local news aggregator that includes daily prices for oil (WTI, 
Brent, AK) and NG.  NG remains fairly stable, but oil has dropped from a high 
of $68 to $43 since the beginning of this year.  The failure of OPEC to contain 
production will drive prices down further when Saudi ARAMCO and Russia will 
ramp up production beginning of April.  Expectations of $30 per barrel and

Re: [MBZ] 124 hood release cable R

2020-03-08 Thread Curley McLain via Mercedes
I found a thing on pelican that says you can pull the latch out the top 
enough to get the cable loose.   I think one time a 110 I was working on 
needed a hood cable, and came to me with the cable broken.   These 
cables are pretty durable.   The one is on the the 124 300D with ~350k 
miles.    Last spring I saw the cable was frayed and the end was held by 
only a couple strands.   I took off the handle and put a vice grip on it 
then.   Now I will soon have the car back so its time to get the cable 
and change it.  FCP has it for under $10, and AZ has it for over $10.

I just looked at the pictures, but saw none which showed the underneath
side of the radiator support.

I do recall the release cable comes underneath the radiator support from
the left and then goes to the latch on the top of the support. The
condenser mounts from behind the radiator support.

You will have to remove the horn, fans, and fan shroud. You may have to
remove the clips which hold the radiator shroud, radiator, and condenser
to the back of the radiator support so you can lean them to the rear, if
the condenser is in the way of the latch mechanism.

[MBZ] Nobody wants to go to San Francisco ?

2020-03-08 Thread Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes
I’m flying on a big boy 787 tomorrow to San Francisco. This will be my first 
time on one of these. When I first booked the trip a couple of weeks ago the 
flight was full. I watch the seat maps to see if I can get a better seat daily 
and over the last few days seats have been opening up. This morning nearly the 
entire economy section is empty. All my other 8 segments for the trip appear to 
have lots of empty seats which normally never happens these days.

Yes - the rear windows are a PIA to repair.  Backseats and door panel must
be removed and the attachment mechanism for the regulator is very finicky.,

Here's a nice piece from a Canadian doctor and an Infectious Diseases
Specialist that has been at this for more than 20 years.

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2020/03/an_infectious_disease_doctor_has_a_message_about_the_real_epidemic_out_there.html

"I am not scared of Covid-19. I am concerned about the implications of a
novel infectious agent that has spread the world over and continues to 
find

new footholds in different soil. I am rightly concerned for the welfare of
those who are elderly, in frail health or disenfranchised who stand to
suffer mostly, and disproportionately, at the hands of this new scourge.
But I am not scared of Covid-19.

What I am scared about is the loss of reason and wave of fear that has
induced the masses of society into a spellbinding spiral of panic,
stockpiling obscene quantities of anything that could fill a bomb shelter
adequately in a post-apocalyptic world."

The tail feathers have value, and possibly the fuselage from the doors
back, if you need that part. The landing gear are probably good, and also
have value. However, $1500 looks a bit high to me.
A neighbor is selling all but one of his collection -
https://www.proxibid.com/Ken-Carpenter-Auctions/George-Henthorn-Estate/event-catalog/173090?#800
but
I don't think I'll be bidding on any. I would only want them for parts
anyway.

What I DON'T need is more projects!

I just looked at the pictures, but saw none which showed the underneath
side of the radiator support.

I do recall the release cable comes underneath the radiator support from
the left and then goes to the latch on the top of the support. The
condenser mounts from behind the radiator support.

You will have to remove the horn, fans, and fan shroud. You may have to
remove the clips which hold the radiator shroud, radiator, and condenser
to the back of the radiator support so you can lean them to the rear, if
the condenser is in the way of the latch mechanism.

[MBZ] 300D 2.5 shakedown

2020-03-08 Thread Curley McLain via Mercedes
The 300D would not start tuesday,  nothing wrong but the wire to the 
starter.  Neither the key switch (new in 2011) or the aux switch (i 
didn't put in) would start the car in time for #1 daughter to get to a 
class she teaches.   Both switches rely on the same wire to the starter.


I told her to bring it here when it did start.  I sent her home with the 
91 300D 2.5 without any shakedown other than the trip to the alignment 
shop.   Before she got home, the master cyl let go.  After I put in 
another new key switch, replaces the aux switch, ran a new wire from it 
to the starter and put in a new aux switch under the hood, I told her to 
bring back the 91 and get the 87.   On the way here, the 2.5 was running 
hot.


I had filled antifreeze before she took it.   Larry had replaced the 
tstat a couple years and not many miles before.  I'm thinking fan clutch 
or aux fan.


what is the best way to test the aux fan switch?   I should get out the 
IR thermometer too.

[MBZ] OT Keep Calm and Carry On (Mexican beer virus)

2020-03-08 Thread Meade Dillon via Mercedes
Here's a nice piece from a Canadian doctor and an Infectious Diseases
Specialist that has been at this for more than 20 years.

https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2020/03/an_infectious_disease_doctor_has_a_message_about_the_real_epidemic_out_there.html

"I am not scared of Covid-19. I am concerned about the implications of a
novel infectious agent that has spread the world over and continues to find
new footholds in different soil. I am rightly concerned for the welfare of
those who are elderly, in frail health or disenfranchised who stand to
suffer mostly, and disproportionately, at the hands of this new scourge.
But I am not scared of Covid-19.

What I am scared about is the loss of reason and wave of fear that has
induced the masses of society into a spellbinding spiral of panic,
stockpiling obscene quantities of anything that could fill a bomb shelter
adequately in a post-apocalyptic world."

I missed that about the rear suspension. Yep, pass. Too bad as otherwise looks 
nice.

I respectfully have to disagree. No, it won't wake anyone up from the insidious

I concur that CV19 is not that big a threat.  Unfortunately, instead of:

Observation: Societal reaction to CV19 is overblown
Reaction: "At least it was a good exercise for a real Ebolathrax scenario, let 
us make the following improvements..."

we will probably see:

Observation: Societal reaction to CV19 is overblown
Reaction: "This was stupid, we shouldn't react to these things."

I think it might be a bigger deal than people think. This thing seems to have a 
really long incubation period so people could be carrying it around for weeks 
without knowing it.
