Howdy,
Have been looking unsuccessfully for my source - basically it said the 
engines of the '70s were not built to tolerences that would support a 0W 
oil - whether synthetic or dino.  Regardless of what Porsche said, I'm not 
sure they spend a great deal of engineering resources looking into the oils 
suitable for 30-40 year old 911s.  I suspect they would  prefer to see us in 
new (or newer) models.  I know I'm not going to run my '74 911 on 0W30 or 
0W40 - unless Porsche wants to put a guarantee out there saying they'll 
cover any oil related damage - & maybe not even then. ;-)


Do you have a copy of that TSB?  The ones I was able to locate delt with 
fuel and fuel systems.  It probably wasn't a complete library I was looking 
at -

Let me know if you have any questions or comments ->>


My question is, where does this recommendation come from? Porsche issued a

This is perfectly correct. "Ich gehe" means simply "I go" and is not

Was this always true?  Or is it language drift?  I'm just
wondering where my teacher's STRONG opinion on this came
from.  Gehe was going, implied walking.  Fahre was traveling,
implied not walking.  (To simplify.)  Was the difference the

So, would that be 6 'face cords'?  I borrowed a neighbor's splitter,
and in the time I have daily to use it it takes me a couple of weeks
to do our 8-10 full cords, maybe 25 face cords.  Rental over that
period of time is a whole lot less attractive.

[MBZ] Audio hackery

2007-03-31 Thread Jim Cathey

I decided to surprise my wife by putting the portable CD player in her
car, currently the Chicken Wagon.  (I bought her some books on disc
she might like.)  When I put the cassette adapter into the Becker it
blew its fuse.  Not the car's, but the one in the clip-on holder
behind the radio.  When I pulled it out enough to temporarily bypass
the (undersized?) 2A Euro fuse, I found it wouldn't retain the
cassette adapter.  The tape safety was kicking in.  I opened up the
Becker and had my memory refreshed by the sight of belt pieces
floating around.  Oh yeah, the cassette in this _was_ defunct!  I'm
mulling over ways to bypass the tape adapter right now...

So, the Becker 599 Europa Cassette has a rear-panel DIN connector for
external sourcing, but it's mono, not stereo.  So that's out.
Internally the cassette transport mechanism is a hinged subassembly.
It unplugs and pivots out, then you pry the snap-ear hinges open a bit
and remove the whole thing.  Easy.  Removed, you lose the four tape
buttons and the dial/band selector light.  There is a four-pin
connector (with only three used) and a three-pin connector on the main
board for the transport.  The three-pin is for the head: the center is
common ground, the pin towards the volume control (black) is R, the
remaining one (red) is L.  It seems to be 'hot' at all times, even
with the radio playing on the bench touching one of the signal pins
results in superimposed hum.  On the four-pin connector the big red
wire towards the tuning knob is +12V, the next one is a no-connect,
the next (yellow) is switched by the transport to +12V to disable the
radio, and the last (black, towards the volume control) is grounded by
the FF/REW buttons on the transport to attenuate the signal.  Ground
is through the metal chassis.  It should be relatively easy to
fabricate a plate of some sort to cover the tape button hole, and to
rig some jacks into which to plug the CD player or her iPod.  (The
iPod is the real reason I'm going to this much trouble, an auto CD
player is not expensive.  Ones new enough to already have an iPod jack
_are_ expensive.  And if I'm going to operate it makes sense to do it
on an old Becker of little value.)

I suppose that I need to plan out what I want to do.  OK, in a perfect
world the cover plate will have a mini phone jack for the
iPod/Discman, a mini power jack for the Discman, a USB jack to power
the iPod, and an incandescent lamp or bank of LED's to light up the
tuning dial and band indicator and to indicate (by omission) that
the auxiliary input is active.  The USB jack requires 5 V, the Discman
requires 4.5 V.  As the Discman uses a 3 V non-rechargeable battery
pack I suspect that the 4.5 V is not too critical, and that the
Discman and USB power plugs can thus share 5V.  That means only a
single 5 V regulator is required.  USB calls for 500 mA, the Discman's
adapter is rated about the same.  If I make the cover plate out of
metal it should be a nice heat sink for a 7805 regulator.  Perfect.

I'm pretty sure it was late '81 when  MB added the turbo. Definitely 
available in '82. I had an '81 parts coupe which I drove around a bit before 
parting out. It actually wasn't too bad. Nothing like a 240! If this one is 
rust free and has a straight body and the mileage is accurate it would be 
worth the garage queen treatment. I love mine but the body has been through

"Ich gehe auf eine Wassermelone Skiingreise zum Schwarzen Meer"
This is perfectly correct. "Ich gehe" means simply "I go" and is not
specific whether I fly, drive, walk or whatever.


Was this always true?  Or is it language drift?  I'm just
wondering where my teacher's STRONG opinion on this came
from.  Gehe was going, implied walking.  Fahre was traveling,
implied not walking.  (To simplify.)  Was the difference the

It causes smog -- that nasty soup of chemicals produced by the 
oxidation of unburned hydrocarbons by ozone.  Some of this stuff (if 
not all), collects as water based microdroplets, and can also then dry 
into particulate matter.  Add in the soot from diesels and the dust 
from gassers, fly ash from un-treated power plants (nearly all of them, 
by the way), and you have some really horrible stuff that is fully 
"breathable" -- fine enough to go right past all your lung defenses 
into the bronchia and air sacs.

AIR POLLUTION: EPA issues guidance for diesel engine NOx controls

Daniel Cusick, Greenwire reporter

   Tens of millions of tons of diesel fuel pollution, including nitrogen oxides
   (NOx) and particulate matter, could be reduced under new U.S. EPA guidance
   that allows automakers to install selective catalyst reduction (SCR)
   technology on diesel-powered cars and trucks, the agency said today.

   The [2]guidance, issued this week in a 10-page memo from Karl J. Simon,
   EPA's acting compliance and innovative director, to automakers, will help
   manufacturers comply with tough new emissions standards for NOx emitted from
   diesel engines.

   The standard, set at 0.20 grams of NOx per brake horsepower-hour, is being
   phased in between model years 2007 to 2010, according to EPA. NOx is a
   primary component of ground-level ozone, the nation's leading air pollution
   threat, and is also a precursor pollutant in the formation of fine
   particulate matter, or soot, that affects millions with asthma, bronchitis
   or other lung ailments.

   Since EPA published its diesel engine NOx standard in 2001, engine makers
   have experimented with a variety of technologies to control the pollutant.
   Selective catalytic reduction, which is already widely used to control NOx
   from area source emitters such as industrial plants, ultimately won favor
   with EPA and manufacturers because it can achieve as high as 90 percent
   reductions in NOx.

   In a release, EPA said the new guidance on emission certification procedures
   for on-road diesel engines using SCR technology "helps pave the way for
   putting more innovative and fuel-efficient clean diesel cars and trucks on
   America's roads."

   While endorsing the move toward greater use of SCR on diesel engines, Simon
   noted that the technology "is still evolving" and added that EPA "reserves
   the right to make any necessary changes" to the guidance as conditions
   warrant.

   One concern about SCR's use in motor vehicle engines is that the technology
   requires regular replenishment of a NOx reducing agent, usually ammonia or
   urea, to be effective. If an engine were to run out of its reducing agent
   while in use, its NOx reduction capability would drop to zero, according to
   EPA.

   "Because the NOx efficiency and thus the NOx emissions performance of an SCR
   system is so dependent upon a nitrogen-containing reducing agent, it is
   critical than a vehicle using SCR never operate without the reducing agent,"
   Simon wrote in the guidance letter.

   Yet many manufacturers have warned that they would not be able to store
   sufficient volumes of ammonia or urea on a motor vehicle to allow for
   federally recommended maintenance intervals of between 100,000 and 150,000
   miles.

   As such, "It may be appropriate for EPA to approve an industry-wide
   scheduled maintenance change, as we have done previously in similar
   situations," the guidance states.

   Manufacturers will need to gain approval for their SCR strategies as part of
   the EPA certification process. Among the other requirements for
   certification are driver warning systems and inducement measures, a track
   record of system durability and reliability, and reducing agent quality and
   availability, EPA said.

   Diesel engine manufacturers, represented by the Diesel Technology Forum,
   have assured that all new engines being produced for highway use will meet
   EPA's air pollution standards, including for NOx and particulate matter.

   In January, the group announced that all new big rigs are equipped with
   innovative new PM-trapping filters and that NOx emissions have also been
   significantly cut due to improved technolog

When you use a modal verb, the secondary verb, in the infinitive, is placed at

Ich kann ein Mercedes fahren.

Not sure about other situations where verbs get moved to the end of the

IIRC my HS German teacher would have had a fit with that, something
about "gehe" implying that you were going to walk there.  "Fahre",
if you were traveling by machinery.  Of course, he was rather old-
school high German, and the texts we had were about WW2 vintage
and still used black letter forms.  Long s's and the like.  Oh,
and oughtn't the verb come at the end?  Man, it's been a long time.

I opened up my shop manuals and found the information in Section 80,
Central locking system, comfort hydraulics, in Volume 2 of the Service
Manual, Chassis and Body, Series 123 (not in the A/C manual).

For the 123.1 chassis, the only problem with the diagram I sent was that
the "Unlocking" and "Locking" labels on the schematic were reversed. The
diagram I sent (which I got off the Internet) was apparently a colorized
version of the diagram found in the manual. The corrected version is
attached. What's confusing is the way Mercedes drew the linkage that
connects to the door safety knob (button); pulling a vacuum on the upper
chamber of a door element should make the button go down, not up as the
linkage drawn shows.

I also found a note in the manual that says that the connections to the
master vacuum switch are reversed for the Coupe, in case you're
interested.

I just took a good look at it and noticed that there appear to be some
errors in it. The two pictures of the master switch in the lower right
are labeled correctly (I still haven't put the inside door panel back
on since I removed it to replace the driver's door gasket). The labels
"Unlocking" and "Locking" in the top schematic, however, seem to be
reversed, as do the blue and muddy green connections to all of the
door elements. I believe the no-vacuum-fail condition of the gas tank
element is open, that it requires vacuum to lock the fuel door.

If you want, I can spend some time correcting the diagram, but the basic
idea is already there.


Craig

P.S. Kaleb, don't approve the large message; it contains the same errors.

Wow.  This car seems to be more "black market" than "gray market." 
Doesn't appear to have a DOT tag in the door jamb, metric 
instrumentation, fire extinguisher still under the seat.  Very cool. 
Wonder what its story is.


Probably well worth the asking price; a shame I've already got plenty of

Re: [MBZ] Frankenheapery, season finale

2007-03-31 Thread Jim Cathey

There's still a lot of stud noise.  I'm starting to wonder if it's
creeping in around the semi-loose window, or worse yet, channeling up
through the door to the window from the big rusty holes in the bottom.
Will try sealing the glass in its channel.  But tomorrow is the last
day I can legally drive on studs, and I no longer have a usable set of
non-studded tires for it.  I'm not planning to buy any, either!  I'd
better get busy.

So I had a close look at the window, and the outer lip of the rearward
window channel liner (right by my ear) was pretty much gone.  I took
some tin snips and cut off a long narrow strip of foam rubber from one
of the dead weatherstrips I removed yesterday.  (From one of the
better sections.)  I glued this in the window channel in place of what
was missing.  (Probably fabric, originally.)  While that was drying I
noted that the outside glass wipe strip was very bad as well, so I
removed the aluminized trim strip and pried off the wipe.  It was very
rusty and decomposed.  The top lip of the door's window opening was
also getting very rusty, so I wire brushed it, masked it off, and
rattle-canned it gray.  I set up a radiant heater to help it dry.  The
fuzz on the wipe I removed was mostly still there, but peeled back
from its proper spot.  I used weatherstrip cement to glue it back into
place.  This won't really last, since the fuzz is decomposing and the
wraparound cloth that it used to be attached to that held it in place
is gone, but it should be better than it was, at least for awhile.  I
can always glue on a foam strip later.  (Or better yet, find a good
used wipe to replace it with.)

I wire-brushed off the worst of the rust on the wipe's metal spine and
painted it black to try to slow down the general decomposition in the
area.  I put it in the oven to dry, I don't really want the paint on
it to fuse with the paint on the door!

The wipe and trim strip installed uneventfully, except for the wasp
that was living under the scrap wood I was going to use to drive the
wipe back on.  Fortunately he was cold.  The window goes up and down
rather stiffly, the foam strip may be a bit too thick.  Oh well!

...Yeah, that got it.  Now I can hear the skritching from the other
side of the car, whereas before it was masked.  Good, just in time.  I
filled the car on the way home, it got 30.5 MPG this last
most-of-a-tank, it was probably summer fuel and of course there is the
thermostatic fan clutch to help out...  I wanted to put it away with a
full tank to minimize water buildup.  Mission accomplished.  I parked
it down below in storage and emptied it of everything, then popped the
hood and opened the battery cutoff switch.  I boxed up the good used
weatherstrips in the trunk, and threw the nasty old ones in loose.  (I
may want to cut some more filler pieces from them.)  I put the
burned-out fog light bulb in the trunk too, it'll have to wait until
next time.  I put the rear window heater in the trunk, it won't melt
in the hot summer sun that way.  I hope.

It's ready to wait out the time until next winter.  On to the 450 SL.
I need to get it out and start driving it to work.  I can park it on
the very busy intersection where I work and hang for-sale signs in it.

Re: [MBZ] Notes from the field: 123 vacuum issues

2007-03-31 Thread Scott Ritchey
The vacuum diagrams in the shop manual (see 80-260 and 80-900/901) are
pretty good.  Get a mitivac and a couple of golf tees.  Then lift the carpet
under the passenger's feet and check the circuits one at a time against the
diagram.  As I recall, all the circuits except the left rear door lock can
be checked there.  The other possibility is a leak or bad check valve under
the hood just above the oil filter housing.  Other good stuff to have on
hand are a couple of spare rubber "Y" couplers and "X" couplers and
especially some rubber hose.  A leaky vacuum storage tank takes patience
because it takes a lot of pumping to build up any vacuum so a leak also
bleeds down slowly.

By reading the posts in sequence, you see the topic change from the

The conversations are a lot easier to follow -- and using a gmail
account for only this list keeps it all together in one place and
keeps the family email clear of the traffic - just an easy way to
manage list mail.

My question is, where does this recommendation come from? Porsche issued a 
service bulletin years ago recommending M1 0W40 in every one of their engines 
back to 1973.5. Which was the first year for CIS in the 911T.
