[MBZ] S210 Spark Plugs

Did the plugs on the 1998 wagon yesterday. Piece of cake, took me under an hour total. I was thinking it was worse, probably because the last spark plug job I did was on the ML500 with the M113, which is very tight in spots. Plenty of room to work without jacking the engine. I was going to do

We live on an old tobacco farm in rural NC. The 11 outdoor rescue cats are part of a group of 21 that were abandoned when some white-trash neighbors abandoned their USDA-financed house two plus years ago. My other neighbor still has three of them and the rest disappeared, died, or got run

Have you been able to catch them and get them spayed and neutered? Around here the animal groups will do that for free on feral cats then you can release them again to do their business without multiplying. --FT Sent from iPhone > On Mar 16, 2020, at 2:23 AM, Scott Ritchey via Mercedes >

Our Country animal shelter is transitioning to a no-kill shelter, and part of the process involving feral cats is capture, spay/neuter and release. They notch the cat’s ear when this is done so they can be identified. It’s working pretty well. Their euthanasia numbers have gone down

Plugs on the M112/3 are required about every 75k-100k. I have service records on this car, so I knew it was due, as well as having looked at one and seen that the electrode was pretty worn. While I expected a difference, more in mileage than actual running, I was surprised at how much smoother
