Steve, Sorry, can't help you with your email problem but your very cool 64 Yamaha 350 caught my eye. How fast can those things really go? Cheers, Bruce

I used to get one or two emails with about twenty letters in each. Is this some sort of protest by the web server to get rid of people on the list? List Mom would never stand for this! May she rest in peace. There were 996 emails in my mailbox today. I would say 97% were from the Mercedes Club. steve vilardi 77 Vette 89 BMW 535i 83 Mercedes 240D 96 Ford Econoline Chateau 89 Ford Econoline E-150 78 Dodge RV with 440 85 Harley Electra-Glide 85 Yamaha Riva scooter 64 Yamaha 350 two stroke A ton of bicycles Three folding bikes 1 bottle of Beefeater Gin _______________________________________ http://www.striplin.net 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://striplin.net/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_striplin.net Bruce 82 300CD 334kmi 'His' 85 300CD 240kmi 'Hers' 75 240D 202kmi 'Donner' 77 240D 204kmi 'Blitzen' --------------------------------- Yahoo!

Remember that IC engines waste about 2/3 the fuel as heat and often I'm standing with the exhaust from the open exhaust ports blowing at my chest. Loud and smelly! I always open a couple of garage doors when running the generator. The generator is in a garage bay with the Frankenheap parked outside. The radiator points at the heap. It was snowing this morning and the windshield was covered. By the time I was done testing the car's windshield was clear and the LP tank's gauge had moved noticeably. I've also got a basket-load of electric furnace resistance elements I bought at St. Vinnie's for about $1 each. The idea was to flange those up in front of a fan as a serious dummy load when the time came. -- Jim
