Ahh, I'd written a big thing but it all boils down to this - you're a jerk, you
have no manners. Kaleb PAYS for this list to exist which is alot more than I
can say for you.
I've bought parts from Kaleb before so I figure I've in some small way help to
support the list. Kaleb gives us anecdotal data, OK Don gives us quotes from a
Mercedes manual, you give us AllData that frequently doesn't know how many
cylinders a car has...
Yes AllData is taken from the manufacturers documentation but the problem is
its taken BY HAND. Mistakes are bound to happen...

Perhaps the belief that anecdotal data gathered by a junk yard operator
is
superior to real repair and diagnostic information scared him off -
this
certainly isn't the first instance. Or the underlying belief by many
on
this list that he [Marshall, no Kaleb] was essentially God, which must
get
boring after a while [as apposed to Kaleb, who thinks he's God but most
people don't agree, so he's entertained trying to prove he is]. Either
way,
he's now on the MBCA forums now, where rational minds prevail (I
assume/
hope/ dream.)
I wonder if you have to be in MBCA to be on the forums.
