It's because the one in the glove box didn't have any electrons flowing through it to carry the heat away. In a circuit under the hood there would be plenty of fresh electrons flowing through it to the motor where there is plenty of air flow to takeover for the electrons it transporting the heat. Besides, under the hood it would be closer to the Mobil 1 oil. We all know that Mobil 1 will solve all automotive problems. *chuckle* And it's not even moose day - what's happening to me! -- Philip _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
