Re: [MBZ] Time for a good old oil discussion

2020-10-30 Thread OK Don via Mercedes
Back when I was driving OM617 engines, the switch from dino oil to Mobil 1
made a HUGE difference in starting them in under 20F days - down to 0F once
- at work without a plug for an engine heater. I don't know that Mobil !
was truly full synthetic, but the difference was remarkable. IIRC, it was
15W-50, or maybe 40.

I was planning on taking it back today but got to looking at it more and 
decided to wait until next week. I will probably call them next Wednesday and 
see if they got the title yet. If not I will take it back then. They have no

There is no title, thus, you have no car, only parts.

Here, we have a pretty fast track to clear title called a Mechanics Lien.
The legal premise is, it came in for work, you invested time and money to
fix it, the owner never paid you, you "Seized the car in lue of payment "
and now want title.

Normal processing is about 30 days once you file the paperwork with DMV
Does your state have such a thing?
If not... take it back and get a refund, or sue Copart for selling you a
car without a title, which has to violate some law, somewhere... Triple
damages sounds about right for fraud.

[MBZ] Time for a good old oil discussion

2020-10-30 Thread Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes
Up till recently most of the diesel synthetic oils have been 5w40.  
15W40 was always dino oil.  Now days there are starting to be 
supposedly  full synthetic 15w40 diesel oils out.  Rotella now has T6 in 
15w40 and I now see Delvac Extreme 15w40 at Walmart for under $20 per 
gallon.  Anybody know anything about all this or have opinions?  In a 
cold weather setting, we sometimes get down to 0 or even below in OK but 
most of the time maybe low teens first thing in the morning.   In those 
conditions dino 15w40 might be thick but when talking about full 
synthetic, what sort of different would there be between 5w and 15w full 
synthetic.  I am assuming a full synthetic 15w would flow better and 
faster in the cold than a dino 15w? And, would a 15w really be a full 
synthetic?  From what I have researched the 15w40 might be more sheer 
stable and not burn off as quickly.

I quit breathing 87 times per hour according to my doctor. Yes, I seem to sleep 
just fine with it. Seemed to have solved a lot of issues that I didn’t even 
think were related such as having to get up a couple of times a night to piss. 
No more of that. Seems to have cured heart burn I used to get all the time. I 
don’t fall asleep as bad while watching TV at night. 

They got some kind of new treatment that is an implant like a pace maker which 
you turn off and on by a remote. Not really sure how that works but I asked my 
dr about it and it’s supposedly only for people that can’t tolerate cpap. Since 
I can I’m supposedly not eligible.

Hello listers. I remember a discussion a while back when someone (Kaleb?) was 
diagnosed with sleep apnia requiring a CPAP. My wife had her sleep study a 
couple weeks ago, and the report said that she had stopped breathing 12 times 
in an hour. I’m a heavy snorer myself, so chances are pretty good that I also 
have it. For those of you with CPAP experience, how did it work or how is it 
working? has quality of sleep increased? Do you need to sleep fewer hours than

[MBZ] Keep or send back to Copart?

2020-10-30 Thread Kaleb Striplin via Mercedes
This is a 91 300D I picked up from Copart about 2 months ago. So far no title. 
I have called them several times and they are still trying to get the title 
from the seller. Talked to them the other day and I can now bring the car back 
to unwind the deal. I have about $900 in it after auction fees. Car has a new 
radiator and I think a new fan clutch also. Probably trying to fix an 
overheating problem. It’s about a 99% certainty it has a blown head gasket. 
Builds up pressure quickly and has a decent amount of pressure still in the 
system even after sitting for weeks. Also would not hold a vacuum with my 
radiator tester and filler tool. Temp gauge does not currently work so I did 
not run it for a long amount of time. I did drive the car up and down the road 
and it shifts fine and despite running like crap at idle it seems to have loads 
of power. It’s got a manually pressure operated watergate instead of the 
factory one. 

Car is in fair shape and did also have a trunk full of parts. Below is a video 
of it running. Anything sound funny to you guys?  Oil looks good, does not 
appear to have oil in the coolant but does have junk in there like perhaps some 
of that stop leak crap. Should I just keep it and pull the head and fix it or 
send it back to copart?

 Nah the woman at the DMV was quite nice and helpful. Got the TM office on 
 her phone, talked with them. That’s how it was left.
 
 Checked in with my cuz who works for TM, she says it’s ok to nag the VP 
 again so I’ll ring him manana see what might sort.
 
 I’m no worse off than I was, although I should have checked with the TM 
 guy first, I just didn’t want to bother him again.
