I could probably eat mexican everyday of the week. Curt Raymond wrote: Wise thoughts, I like pizza, does anybody else like pizza? I REALLY like pizza. One time my wife wanted to see how long I could go eating nothing but pizza, for a week I had pizza 3 times a day, I had pepperoni pizza, mushroom pizza, scrambled egg pizza(for breakfast of course), fish pizza, lobster pizza, pizza crackers, pita pizzas all sorts of pizza. Finally my wife admitted defeat, gave in and said I won the prize which was dinner out wherever I wanted to go. I went out and had a great big dang steak, I was so tired of pizza!

Re: [MBZ] Inappropriate FOOD
Oh yeah? Then check this site out: http://www.tasteoftx.com/recipes/rellenos.html - I recommend stuffing with fajita beef or things like that in addition to the cheese. Also, since the batter is a mess, it works pretty much as well to bake in about 1/4 of oil till hot/bubbly (put extra cheese on top for this method)(no need to turn really). Also http://tasteoftx.com/recipes/Chiles.html - the basic red chile sauce is great for enchilada sauce - and the oregano is the bit (NOT optional) that is often missing, where you wonder why doesn't this taste like the restaurant. - for extra goodness, add over-easy fried eggs to top of enchiladas...man, I love the taste of the runny egg yolk mixed in with all the enchilada goodness.

Seriously, I read on this list that Rusty doesn't sell them anymore and the dealer is now the only option, and that they sent out to Florida.

(You might want to stick a bit of rag into the open tube ends on the engine) -Remove the T-40 head manifold bolts (14 places, I think). There is one hiding under the lifting eye back by #5 or #6. -Gently lift the manifold free, disconnecting the vacuum control line and the boost pressure sensing line from the valve. Be cautious of the little plastic clamp on the boost line. You may want to fill the manifold with some cleaner to let it soak while you work -Carefully slide the intake manifold gasket out (to the front of the engine), noting its orientation. -Stuff CLEAN lint-free rags into each intake ports and the intercooler pipe to keep crud out of them. -Clean off the top of the injection pump (carb cleaner, etc). -Make a diagram of where the injection lines go, and more importantly, how the various clips attach to them. Take note of how the first two lines run around the low pressure fuel and injection bypass hoses. -Remove all of the clips from the injection lines. 80% or more will likely break. -Loosen the injection line nuts and remove the injection lines. The special crowsfoot (13mm) above really makes it much easier on the engine side. -Remove the three T-30 screws that secure the delivery valve lock rings to the injection pump. Take note of how the lock rings are laying on the pump. -Remove all of the lock rings. -Clean the top of the IP again--pay special attention to around the delivery valves. *** -Using the special spline socket, loosen the first delivery valve holder. Unscrew it by hand and SLOWLY lift the valve holder, being careful to not let the spring get lost/drop out or pull the valve from inside the pump. -Use the (CLEAN) pick to remove the copper seal ring from the top of the assembly that was under the valve holder. -Carefully lower a new copper seal ring onto the assembly. Try to keep the ring and assembly more or less centered within the bore -Remove the O-ring from the outside of the valve holder. Use carb cleaner or similar to clean all the crud off the outside of the body (don't flush it inside!) -Fit a new O-Ring onto the delivery valve body. Put a few drops of oin on the threads of the valve and on each side of the O-Ring, ensuring that the ring is well-oiled. -Thread the delivery valve body into the IP by hand, being cautious of the valve assembly and the spring. (The spring should seat on top of the valve assembly into the pump), and the O-ring should not be pinched. -Using a torque wrench and the spline socket, torque the delivery valve holder to 30Nm (22 ft-lb). -Loosen the valve body maybe 1/8 turn (just enough to remove the torque/pressure) and re-torque to 30Nm/22ft-lbs. -Repeat the above step (This makes 3x torquing to 30Nm/22ft-lbs)

I finished it, and it wasn't that bad (I'm kicking myself for not taking photos though!) It took me less than four hours for this job and that included running out to get the T-40. The 4 hours that the labor guide quotes is generous, certainly... If anyone has any thoughts/comments on this, lemme know. Parts: 7x 603 078 01 41 (Injection pipe clips) 7x 601 078 26 41 (Injection pipe shims--trim them on one side) 2x 601 078 26 41 (Injection pipe clips) 1x 606 141 01 80 (Intake manifold gasket) 6x 017 997 41 48 (Bosch 1-460-210-321 O-ring, you may want spares) 6x 004 997 45 40 (Bosch 1-410-105-021 Copper seal washer) (These are the same rings as used on a 602 or 603 engine.)

(You might want to stick a bit of rag into the open tube ends on the engine) -Remove the T-40 head manifold bolts (14 places, I think). There is one hiding under the lifting eye back by #5 or #6. -Gently lift the manifold free, disconnecting the vacuum control line and the boost pressure sensing line from the valve. Be cautious of the little plastic clamp on the boost line. You may want to fill the manifold with some cleaner to let it soak while you work -Carefully slide the intake manifold gasket out (to the front of the engine), noting its orientation. -Stuff CLEAN lint-free rags into each intake ports and the intercooler pipe to keep crud out of them. -Clean off the top of the injection pump (carb cleaner, etc). -Make a diagram of where the injection lines go, and more importantly, how the various clips attach to them. Take note of how the first two lines run around the low pressure fuel and injection bypass hoses. -Remove all of the clips from the injection lines. 80% or more will likely break. -Loosen the injection line nuts and remove the injection lines. The special crowsfoot (13mm) above really makes it much easier on the engine side. -Remove the three T-30 screws that secure the delivery valve lock rings to the injection pump. Take note of how the lock rings are laying on the pump. -Remove all of the lock rings. -Clean the top of the IP again--pay special attention to around the delivery valves. *** -Using the special spline socket, loosen the first delivery valve holder. Unscrew it by hand and SLOWLY lift the valve holder, being careful to not let the spring get lost/drop out or pull the valve from inside the pump. -Use the (CLEAN) pick to remove the copper seal ring from the top of the assembly that was under the valve holder. -Carefully lower a new copper seal ring onto the assembly. Try to keep the ring and assembly more or less centered within the bore -Remove the O-ring from the outside of the valve holder. Use carb cleaner or similar to clean all the crud off the outside of the body (don't flush it inside!) -Fit a new O-Ring onto the delivery valve body.

Re: [MBZ] Premium Gas or Not?
Don - Just wanted to add that it is really a function of the compresson ratio of the engine. If your compression ratio gets up towards 10:1 it really should be running the good stuff. Most modern engines these days have knock sensors or detonation sensors that retard the spark when it begins to detonate to keep from damaging the engine. The late timing adversely affects performance and usually fuel mileage too. You might want to try the premium and see if running the cheaper price stuff is really worth it in the long run.

Re: [MBZ] high$$
During my brief time on the R/e list there was no discussion about anything MB less than 5 years old. It was more like Should I order it in champagne or cognac? Then they got into the Oral Roberts thing and I bailed. It was generating 200-300 emails a day of stuff i had no interest in. This list centers primarily around cars that are 20 years old + or - 5 or 10 There is a big difference between a 50-120K sticker price and a $500 to 5000 car. I realize that there is some crossover and a few on this list have 90 something MBs, but the vast majority of both list, in my experience, fit the descriptions above.

My wagon has three phases and no warning of which is on duty. On an 80 mile trip the other day, nothing would make it work as I tried numerous times/things. Next time it works after fiddling with it. Yesterday on the out trip, it engaged like a new one, lasted about four miles, disengaged and quit. Coming back trip, it worked like a new one all the way with calling for it about four times. The return spring for the pedal seems pretty stiff to me and I wondered if that could be a cause. Where should I start looking?

If you go to the federal trade commission website, they list the international cashiers chec scam as one of the top scams going on in the country. It's really getting bad. I think someone may have even created a program to automaticaly respond to everything on Craigslist because when I've listed things there, al lthe responses were from cashiers check scammers and most were a form letter that didn't even mention the item listed, it would just say something like your item or your Product These clowns bid up cars on ebay all the time too. I bought a volvo diesel from a guy last year that I knew, I thought he had sold the car already, he had listed it on ebay, a scammer had the high bid, he listed it again, a different scammer had the high bid, he finally gave up ( good for me, bad for him ) I got ahold of him 5 months later just to see, and he still had the car and i lucked out, but that guy got stabbed for listing fees on ebay. i don't know if he ever got out of that due to non paying bidder or not. -Robert John Berryman wrote: On Jan 20, 2006, at 9:50 PM, Brian Chase wrote: As soon as I read a certain one of those responses, I recognized it as a scam.

Re: [MBZ] W210.025/OM606.962 delivery valves (finished!) -- HOWTO
Nice writeup. One caution. Even if you torque the delivery valves PERFECTLY, they might still distort the injection pump body. That will cause noise (and damage if not promptly corrected) and result in incorrect/uneven fuel delivery. The cure is to loosen and re-torque the delivery valve for the cylinder that's misfiring. valve. Even experienced pros using a torque wrench seem to distort the pump maybe 1 out of 10 times (I'm told) and need to loosen and retighten the valve. It may be that the earlier OM60x pumps are more touchy about this than the later ones and I KNOW that the 6 cylinder versions are much worse than the 4 or 5 cylinder pumps.

'Preciate the concise info.

It did not come with a key. Just the cylinder was sent. I called him and asked what's up - he basically said, his bad - that he told me the wrong thing, and that in fact, the option to order the cylinder coded to VIN should not come with a key. And the option to order a cyl. and a key together would not yield a set coded to an existing VIN. Fortunately, I had ordered an extra key (coded) (arrived separately and several days earlier than cyl.). So all told, I have the cylinder (supposedly coded to my VIN) and one key (also supposedly coded to my VIN). I haven't confirmed that they work yet. What and where is this secret lock facility? They told me that the cyl. would come from Germany via Texas, and that it may take 6 - 8 weeks, but they could not say for sure how long it'd take. It actually only took about a coulpe weeks.

If not, what in the world is that thing? http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/dominiquesav/my_photos j

Re: [MBZ] Nice W115, and ebay question
Yeah, I figured it was well-known. The thing I was wondering about is: Since the language is so similar to what I encountered some time ago on a different selling site, is this scam so standard that many people choose to use the same lousy language? Or is it the same person(s)? Not a terribly important question, just wondering. I picture some dude spending all his time sending out these poorly-written scams. It would be more than a full-time job. If this is not the scenario, why is the language so similar (including very poor mastery of the king's english)? Or is it automated and mass distributed? I question, therefore I am.
