Re: [MBZ] Who wins in U.S. vs Europe contest?
My favorite European country is probably Portugal. In their grocery stores most local wines are $3 or less. Lisbon is breathtakingly beautiful, nestled in a SF-like setting but without the highly inflated sense of self-importance. I love their cool streetcars and awesome museums, the people are friendly, and pastry shops just like Paris IIRC. We took the train to Albufiera on the Algarve and spent a week on the beach in November a few years ago. Too cold to swim comfortably but that didn't stop me from trying. The coastal ruins were fun to explore and mercifully devoid of Eurotrash. Lots of Islamic influence in the architecture, with mosques from past invasions well preserved for their stunning architecture.

We had it dug out on the outside down to the footings and the inside reinforced with steel angle bolted to the concrete and then the outside filled mostly with river rock etc. 30 foot wall cost about $6K for the repair. I think I am getting too old and feeble to attack jobs like that by myself. The fellow who did it worked like a machine. He hand dug the whole thing in no time and kept a second fellow almost running to dump the wheelbarrows full of dirt on the street. We have a crack in the east wall as well but it does not appear to be any significant issue yet. I am thinking of having the steel installed on it too but not digging it out as it does not leak.

I think even Dingo Diggers woulda; been proud. THere still was a lot of shovel work. I had one helper for that, and he was a workin fool. I like the ibeam brace systems better than the wall anchors, but opted for a less expensive methodology. An old carpenter told me he straightened walls by bulding a 2x4 frame wall inside, then after the dirt is away from the wall outside, push the wall out. I was amazed at how little force it took to straighten the walls. I think they wanted 4-500 bucks for each i beam or anchor. THis way I get water controlinsode and out, and a finished basement at the end. putting in the walls and insulating them made a HUGE difference last winter! Very comfortable now. ___ Is your basement wall block? My wife's grandfather straightened the wall in his basement many years back by digging out the outside and using a square timber horizontally and a big bolt to pull the middle back into alignment. We are not permitted to use block here. It has to be poured concrete. The problem is that the builders don't put enough cement in the concrete and enough rebar in the wall. Our gumbo tends to move around during wet vs dry times and over time we get cracks in the foundation walls. It is not much of an issue if it does not leak but over time they keep moving until they do leak it seems. Hence my having the wall braced so it would not move much.

Re: [MBZ] ALDA
Curt, et al. Yup! Did it again. I was lusting after a 300TDt in Co. but it was too far away to fetch economically and time was not available. Then two came up on Boston's Craigslist, one too costly but nice, the other was OK for the money and nearby on the cape. So Luke and I went for it and cruised home in style. The car has some deficiencies, Alda missing, Junk brakes, small exhaust leak at flex section (unobtainium), odd assortment of tyres, air cleaner adrift, etc. etc. etc. On the other hand, the body and underbody are very good with just a few warts and a pair of very small holes in the front inner fenders.

[MBZ] More 124 ac
Ok so messing with my 95 e300 again. So I bought the complete set of test wiring harness and break out box to test the entire acc system. Ran thru the tests and it says pbu bad. During the test you are supposed to test for 12v between I believe pin 7 and 13 on the break out box. I do not get 12v. On the test to check for supply voltage it's just fine. So I am assuming if you jump those 2 pins 13 and 7 that should be basically doing what the pbu would do and kick on the compressor? Right? Well it does not. I am thinking if it should kick on the compressor it's not the pbu but rather the wire going from the pbu to the pressure switch. With the car running if you jump the other wire on the switch that does to the Klima to any ground point compressor kicks on. I got another pbu off eBay with the correct part number that was supposed to have tested good and it does not kick on the compressor. So after messing with it, studying wiring diagrams and trying to teach myself something about ele ctrical the only thing I come up with is a problem with the wire. I am pretty sure I tested resistance in that wire at the pbu plug and the pressure switch and it had none, so that would seem to indicate the wire is good. I will check this again then I guess see about tracing the wire. Problem is storm blew thru the other day and blew a huge tree down taking out a storage building and fence so I have to get this tree cut up.

Re: [MBZ] USPS
Looks like a moment of clarity is in order. Andrew, you have not been paying your fair share, apparently. I believe to be fully content you should work without pay, for as long as your government masters demand, and accept anything they provide for you as satisfactory. Sound about right? To the rest, I'm not pissed, just practical. I can not find a single instance where increase in taxes paid translated into better government. Ever. Show me even one government department that actually produces a product for less than the sales price, that works on time, is delivered on schedule, and you don't have to wait in line for.

Re: [MBZ] Brake Hoses
Howdy -- I am going to replace the rear calipers and hoses on my 91 300D this weekend hopefully. Question - the connections where the hose meets the caliper and where the hose meets the chassis pipe - they are compression fittings IIRC (or they may have a different name - the 2 cones mate and form a seal I believe) -- should I put anything on the threads? Anti-seize for instance? I know nylin is not acceptable Thanks - Larry they are double flare fittings. BTB: no nothing on threads. School of hard knocks: you can put some never seize on the external threads as long as you are vewy vewy caweful (quoting Elmer Fudd) not to get any antiseize onto the parts that will touch brake fluid.

Re: [MBZ] Totally OT - house painting
Is your basement wall block? My wife's grandfather straightened the wall in his basement many years back by digging out the outside and using a square timber horizontally and a big bolt to pull the middle back into alignment. We are not permitted to use block here. It has to be poured concrete. The problem is that the builders don't put enough cement in the concrete and enough rebar in the wall. Our gumbo tends to move around during wet vs dry times and over time we get cracks in the foundation walls. It is not much of an issue if it does not leak but over time they keep moving until they do leak it seems. Hence my having the wall braced so it would not move much. Randy Yes. In this town there was a cement block plant, and everyone used blocks for basement for decades. 30s and prior, there were some tile block walls, and stone before that. In 1979 i did poured reinforced concrete walls for an advanced earth berm house. The owners buddy had poured walls done a month or so earlier, next door, so my house was the second with poured walls in the town/city and maybe the county. I stopped in and talked to the current owner a few years ago, and it was still dry and performing well. The enginerror had 2 grids of steel 6 O.C. I questioned that and the guy agreed that 1 grid 12 o.c. was enough.Good to know the 2/3 less steel is sufficient. BTW, by 5-10 years later everyone was doing poured walls, and the block plant was out of business. My old neighbor's son has a welding and machine shop on the site now. RE: professional basement specialists None of the ones I interviewed and got quotes from would straighten the walls. THey stabilized it and when questioned, they admitted the wall would still be bowed but would not get any worse. That and cost is why I decided to DIY. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
