Re: [MBZ] Who is in Charge? Just the Facts please

I much prefer the low amp/slow juicing, but with the diesels I sometimes need to just kick the thing over and hope I get enough of a charge on the way to make it good. The weenie 50 amp schumacher is not enough to convince the engine to spin over with those puny 20 gauge wires from the

Re: [MBZ] gas v Diesel

I used to do the premium pump gas, but did not feel it did well in the w220 or R107. When I switched to no ethenol “premium” the old M17 was much happier. Without the alcohol, octane drops down to 88. Pump gas comes in 87 89 and 92 out west. clay monroe redgh...@comcast.net > On Oct 29,

Re: [MBZ] gas v Diesel

Whhht? Around PNW the price for #2 is on par with 87. The idiot legislators want us to vote to reduce carbon by taxing our fuel another $0.52/gal. This makes the dorks in electric cars feel superior, because the power plants are exempt from being taxed for spewing carbons. ANYWAY, I

Ah, now I know how the homeless issue can be addressed. If a hotel caused cancer, then the hobos can be labeled as carcinogens due to the drug use, smoking, poor food and alcohol usages, living in constant contact to exhaust fumes and urban air. Yeah, homeless folks be in violation of article

TIme for power upgrades. I tried to drive Allen yesterday morning and found her dead as a rock. I figured I could give her a jump with Polei, being diesel to diesel, but all I got after five minutes of electrons flowing over what now seems to be overly fine wire gauge (maybe I need to invest
