A half can of that is my standard motorcycle pre-riding tune-up in the spring. I also used it to pre-fill the fuel filter on my VW diesel. On 9/15/07, Curt Raymond <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Is anybody on here using SeaFoam gas additive? > > -- LT Don http://don.homelinux.net/~don/ Proudly

Re: [MBZ] 190D fuel primer pump

Gene drove from his place in Des Moines to Jefferson yesterday (about an hour) in his pickup, dragged his brother's race trailer home (another hour), and hauled the 190D back to Jefferson (another hour) so Jeff, his older brother and mechanic extraordinary, could work on the problem. Jeff did exact

If by "chopped up" you mean a shortened VW bus, then yea, they were pretty common in the late 60s. From the same mentality that destroyed mint Bugs to make dune buggies. On 9/16/07, Rich Thomas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > A couple of weeks ago someone was talking about a chopped up van. I had

Re: [MBZ] Blinker relay

1. Have you tried resetting (smacking the crap out of) the emergency blinker switch? My '77 240D occasionally loses blinker and it turns out to be the fault of the emergency blinker switch. 2. Kleb has a whole back yard full of what you need, if that fails. D. On 9/16/07, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[E

Plans are sort of loose at the moment. Probably gather at the homestead late morning or early afternoon and see what everyone wants to do. Hey, this is Jefferson! Even if the crowd heads out somewhere (i.e. Deal's Orchard), we will most likely be no more than 5 miles from my house and contact wit

Re: [MBZ] Why no 2 stroke diesels

A two-stroke has a definite "cool" factor to it. I can still remember driving my first MIL's two-stroke Saab (93 I think, help me out here Chip) in the early 70s, and at the time it was a well-used vehicle. Four on the column, shifted from 3rd to 4th at 30 mph going downhill. It just radiated (a

The plane in which I flew at Cape Cod did 120 db at takeoff power. Some young chick from OSHA showed up one afternoon and wanted to take measurements. I put her in "my" seat (radio) and cranked up the engines. We sort of BROKE her meter (needle wrapped around the right side stop). I did ask her if
