Re: [MBZ] Success!
I think you need to be careful with the ratchet design to ensure it is engaged properly but I have used a couple of sets for years under pickup trucks, suburbans etc and nothing has ever gone wrong with them. It a tooth did break, it should just jamb in the hole in any event. I don't think you will see anything drop unless you fail to set them properly to start with. Some do seem a bit tighter and thus easier to mis-adjust.

I suspect a tooth either broke or someone didn't make sure the rachet was completely engaged, and one went down. I now have four of the heavy duty pin type.

Re: [MBZ] I love these 115's
I did 418 miles on my last tank and it took 60 litres to fill. The book says the tank should hold 78 litres so I should have been able to make 500 miles on the tank if I had kept moving. That is better than 26 mpg converted to US gallons. That is the best I have managed in the 3 summers I have driven it. Still wouldn't mind having the aux tank.

Re: [MBZ] I love these 115's
Over the past 3 summers I have driven it just about 6K miles. So far my average is just over 20 mpg US. The best I had done previously was about 23 mpg on a highway trip. This time, over 26 mpg but I was going a bit slower due to the wildlife. I have heard that driving the old diesels is good for them so maybe it is the case with my car. I don't think it had been driven much for quite a while before I got it.
