The local Section had a DIY event at a Rent a Garage. Nine hours of dudes working on their own cars, four lifts, five flat slots, rent a tools. I got a working motor installed in the passenger side window, put in a repainted air cleaner holder to go with the mounts. I got some 9.5mm hose

Well done. My yay was to check Row52 this morning and find the PnP 40 miles away had a pair of 560SEL just placed. I came home with a pair of Hirschmann, an alternator (which will not work for the SDL), a load of relays I have no use for, and three of the rubber air cleaner mounts. I meant

Gloves are good. I forgot to use them yesterday while painting the air cleaner cover. Scrubbed, sanded, rinsed and put them out to dry. The rattle can rust fix did not show up, but the black rattle did a great job of coating my hand and arm. Pulled the sleeve down and put a glove on at

Not really. I am just feeling sorry for myself. The weight of three old cars has come crashing down on my wallet. The SL is getting all new injectors, which is a wonderful long term investment. It will not really increase her value, much. The Europa actually getting signal is really nice

Re: [MBZ] D-Jet Injectors

They are not really “rebuilt” as the things are pretty solid state and do not come apart. The process to renovate is to remove rust, put a fresh hose on top, and make sure the thing will squirt close to spec. Then they spray paint the lower part. Failures in my car have been to the plastic
