Wooo, thanks! I regularly get numbers all sideways so I wondered if I was reading it wrong...
I put new spark plugs in my motorcycle tonight, spec'd gap is 0.024-0.028 which is just about as small as my gauge will do. Hadta look at the numbers several times to be sure it was right. -Curt Date: Wed, 14 Apr 2010 12:17:18 -0400 From: "LarryT" <l02tur...@comcast.net> To: "Mercedes Discussion List" <mercedes@okiebenz.com> Subject: Re: [MBZ] Brake Disc Thickness Limit Message-ID: <e98c4154b2c5445e870eddf5f0488...@laptop> Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset="iso-8859-1"; reply-type=original Hi Curt - No, you're not missing anything - I had a brain fart - sorry - the discs are .750" and the lower limit is .787" (20mm) so they're trash now! They are now paperweights. ;-) Thx agn LarryT 91 300D OilAnalysis Time?
