Not sure if this has been suggested but I would try removing the
instrument cluster form the car and the drive it with only the oil and
temp connected.

Not sure how'd you work a 4,6,9 shift? The working RPM range of a
American style big Diesel is ~1400-2100, every gear in a crash box is
about 500rpm, so skipping from 6 to 9 would mean you either rev the guts
out of the engine or lug it up from about 800rpm, neither of which is
good practice.
I'd go to the local fabric store and get a few yards of something that looks
good, then make my own covers. Bit more work, but then you know it'll fit
and be exactly what you want. ;)
My 2 cents,

The Terraplane (aka Terrible pain) was a factory hot rod, intended
as such. Higher power to weight ratio than any other contemporary
production car. 1933 Model KT set Pike's Peak Hill Climb record that
stood for 25 yr. John Dillinger preferred 1933 Model KT - of course

As I understand it - there is little room for error of any sort at
those altitudes.
Hand flying at lower altitude is able to be accomplished because error
is less likely to be catastrophic.

Yes, that was recommended, but later Andrew learned that the so-called
overhaul didn't replace the worn part making the noise, so a replacement
speedometer is in the mail to Andrew.

Yes. Transport aircraft are aerodynamically stable, unlike some modern
fighters
Wilton, wouldn't that be only measured at sea level? I would
think that as you go higher in altitude that one minute of arc
would get longer. Now mind I'm only thinking back to my school
days and that circle and pie wedge thing in beginning geometry.

Perhaps if you could work out a ballpark figure of the cost to convert
from auto to manual, including clutch pedal, flywheel, slave and master
cylinder, etc?
Although I would think it would be uneconomical if the only benefit is
to save a few dollars on fuel, you have to consider that MB aimed

And that is why I like the metric system, a kilometer is 1000 meters.
You and your bizarre backward system.

BTW, a nautical mile (6080 feet) is also one minute of arc of latitude

Technically, yes, but the difference is negligible in the range of altitudes
traveled by surface vessels and aircraft. International convention has
accepted and established a knot as one nautical mile (6080 feet - one minute
of arc of latitude) per hour.

I'm planning to order a set of Ceramic Brake Pads for the front of our '91 300D
(W124) and would like the lists thoughts on the following:.
The Akebono ceramic Pads with Shims are a touch north of $70 from Rusty.
There are some pads from
Are these Pads completely Clean?
One more question - re: the Ceramic Pads - one set is called Euro and the
other set is ACT. I don't recall that acronym - Anyone know what ACT
stands for? (I know Rusty will know) ;-) Let's see who can beat Rusty with
the answer!
Thx
