Hey Dwight,
Don't know if it's something happening at all MB
That's very surprising... When I pull into the local MB dealer for parts
driving an 80s MBZ, they treat me like I have some sort of disease they
don't want to catch. Even if they have 20 employees on staff, they

car so it

They must not leave customer satisfaction cards lying around where just anybody

Yes, though you may have to DIY. You'll need a gauge set, and
a vacuum pump is ideal though you can
Technically that's iso-butane, right? Commonly available as camping gas, but
I've hunted around for it locally and can't find it.

If one could find ISOPro, what is the procedure for making the test
mixture? what fittings are needed to get the ISOPro into the system?
(or into the propane tank) Is it better to blend the propane and
butane first in a propane tank, and then dispense as needed?

I use either a side-tap arrangement, which is a standard R12 tap
belted to the side, or a better one made from a fitting taken from
an actual camp stove that
Man the EPA gonna cap and trade you to oblivion if you keep doing that
kind of thing. Next thing you know Algore will be confiscating your old
MB and declaring it a global climate change catastrophe and putting your

his jet
I have a 1983 240D which needs a a/c system check and charge. All the

Yes, though you may have to DIY. You'll need a gauge set, and
a vacuum pump is ideal though you can flush the air out of a system
