That’s been for sale before. I remember the seats and the random blue cord.
When it was for sale before I don’t think it had the glow plug issues.

I have never seen a movie but have known there was one. I have known about this
forever and saw a documentary on it somewhere not too long ago. An abandoned
Oklahoma group posted pics of the abandoned plant which reminded me of the

The movie that put Meryl Streep on the map. That and Kramer v. Kramer with
Dustin Hoffman. Both great flicks from the 80s.

Kerr McGee, among others, thought they could run nuclear facilities like they

If you switch the alternator pulley to the freewheel version, it will not

There, I fixed it. I have not seen a tire iron that would fit in a
3/8" or 11 mm hole. Not even my BMW motorsickle tire irons will. They
are small. I always have a 12" extension in my box, and they work well
for this job. Still takes me more than a minute. More like 10-15 to

All it takes is a tire iron/lug wrench, a couple of 13mm wrenches and a minute
and you can swap the spring out.
The lug wrench is the critical tool here.

That is good news, far better than dealing with stripped threads or worse.
I'm beginning to wonder if keeping a spare spring in my OM60x cars wouldn't
be a bad idea. I've heard several stories about these springs breaking,
not terribly common but would be very inconvenient if it happened on the
Good.
I do have a little faith in my wrenching prowess.

A month ago I put the magic sealant into the system in my '95 E300, due to
the leaking evaporator. So far the AC performance has not changed, so I
think the charge is holding, but it was a slow leaker before. The day
after I installed the sealant / new dryer / fresh charge of 134a, I used my
I would check the AC out and hit it with a can of sealant and call it done.
