Second that. Be thinking of all of you enjoying a feast while I eat a piece of 
turkey and some low carb vegetables and nothing else.

And to you as well, Curt.

Sounds like many were preparing for Thanksgiving Day tomorrow.

We were invited to some friends' house here in ABQ, so we aren't
preparing anything.

I've been working on completing the electrical system and lights on our
utility trailer as well as looking things up on the 'Net.

Re: [MBZ] name of the list

2015-11-25 Thread rogerhga--- via Mercedes
Well, I don't want to change the list name so I'll contribute some MB stuff.  I 
went out today and started by my old 617s.  They'd been sitting for almost a 
month and I realized I needed a run to warm the engine and charge the batteries 
by taking them for a 30-45 minute spin.  They both cranked right up...the 80 
300SD is only slightly slower at starting than the 83 300D, but both were 
running within a couple of spins of the engine.  I just wish newer cars of all 
makes were as solid as these old MBs.  
Don't know if you remember, but I had tranny issues with the 80 300SD.  I've 
settled on just leaving the vacuum to the modulator on the tranny disconnected. 
 It shifts firm and smooth with no slipping/flaring.  It's not optimum 
obviously, but I can live with it.  In the spring I may take it to my old Indie 
to look at adjusting the vacuum control on top of the IP.  Now, I need to find 
a source for the half axles.  It's getting harder to find parts for the old 116 
models and especially diesels.  Any suggestions would be appreciated. 
Happy Thanksgiving to all and best wishes for a Merry Christmas!

Yesterday I adjusted the front wheel bearings on our '95 E300 (361k miles), 
after I heard a very soft clunking noise from the front end while driving 
slowly in downtown Chucktown.  Left wheel had noticeable play with clunk while 
pushing & pulling at the 12 o'clock position.  Right side was not discernable 
using the same test, but when I put the gauge on it the play was obvious.  
Added some fresh grease to each.

Happy Turkey day to all,

Yes, what he said - Happy Thanksgiving to all of you.
This is the first year in the 40 years we've been married that we are not
preparing the family Thanksgiving dinner. We're in Utica NY at a daughter's
in-laws the turkey day this year. Only had to help with pies today, and I
sharpened all of their knives - I think it was the first time since new for
all of them - took hours.
