Brand name? I need somma them, at camp the little buggers just haul the Decon
around. When we first inherited the place there were glass bottles full with
20+ years of the stuff. Plenty of dead meeces too but plenty of decon around.

I got some mouse candy bars from Menard's last winter. A bar in the
trunk,
a bar under the hood near the fusebox, and a bar in the driver's
footwell
does wonders, and they don't just carry it off and hide it like they do
with the blue D-Con pellets. I forget the brand, but a brick had about
eight bars in it, maybe 1x3" each, too heavy for a mouse to move, so
they
have to eat it on the spot.

Pretty far out of my way unless you're including free delivery.
I had thought it would be an interesting car to buy and drive back but with
the housebuying thing...

Pretty hard on a guy for something of very little importance. I generally go
12gal on my 190D between fillups.
IIRC the wagon has a different size tank than the sedan, I can't remember
which way its different though.

You need to replace the regulator. There is a link at the bottom of
each message for used parts. There are plenty of them available.
