Re: [MBZ] OT, A water circuit breaker for the home
It is cool, for example, if you want to water the yard, press the "Bypass" button and it gives you two hours. If you are leaving town, press the "Away" button and it will shut off the water in 30 seconds if it detects flow over a small pre-set amount. And this is really cool, If you forget to push the "Away" button and it detects no activity for 18 hours, it will set "Away" for you. There is a "Disable" button to take it off line. To turn off all water, press "Bypass" and "Disable" buttons at the same time and its the same as if you had, found the tool, gone out to the meter valve, fought the spiders, dug the dirt away and turned it off there.

Re: [MBZ] '87 300D saga continues
We drove the '87 300D about 300 miles today - IT was idling very rough when we left, 150 miles later is was purring like a kitten when we pulled into the drive at our destination. Let it sit for 4 hours while we went Breezy flying, then headed home - it idled roughly, as before, when we started it. It had a can of Red Line in the tank on the way up, added another when we filled it before heading back. We'll see tomorrow if it's any better. I did verify a cloud of black smoke behind us for most of first and second gear at WOT near the end of the trip. We got 26 MPG at 75 MPH on the first half, haven't filled it after getting back. -- OK Don, KD5NRO Norman, OK "There are only three sports: bullfighting, motor racing, and mountaineering; all the rest are merely games." - Ernest Hemingway '90 300D (Rattled), '92 300D (Saber), ''97 Ply Grand Voyager (Vincent van-go) ___ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Re: [MBZ] fix slipping reverse on my 240D
Having driven the car about six times now since the fix, I think I am going to have to "adjust" how I put the car in reverse. Since I bought it, it was "put in in reverse and wait a moment." Now, it is "put it in reverse and be ready, because you are going backwards NOW -- if you don't want to leave now, be touching the brakes." In other words, I think this B3 adjustment had already backed out some when I bought the car and has simply gotten worse over the years. Reverse was never this strong before (during my period of ownership). Makes me wonder how many other late-70s W123s are limping in reverse when then don't need to be doing so.

[MBZ] today's 190D adventures
Well took the car into town to the car wash. Got it back home, decided to tackle why it was slow to no shut off. Shut off valve leaking. Pull air cleaner to get to it better. Its a paint to get to because for some stupid reason they used torx bolts instead of regular bolts. The back one is directly under the ADA. I end up getting a torx bit, cutting it off so it will fit under the ada, and get a pair of vice grips on it. Get it out, put a good one in I had off a 603 pump, not shutoff. Crap, pull it back apart, didnt get it hooked on the leaver. I then discover that the 190D has the little part sticking out on the valve oposite the 603 version. Crap, they are different. Guess Im going to have to order a new one. In the mean time, still waiting for the gaskets to arrive from Rusty for the valve body swap on the other 190D. Did pull the valve body out of the bad tranny that came out of the car. No problem there. Was tempted to install it without new gasket but though better of it. Now if I would just get them. Drivers window regulator is bad, dont have a used one so I will have to order a new one for that too I guess. Kicking myself for getting rid of that running/driving 190D parts car I had.

Re: [MBZ] More 240D fun
My car has an allen head bolt. My problem is that it was the largest allen socket I had which is only 3/8 drive. With a 1/2" drive socket I'd have used the impact wrench... Ah, I misunderstood. The steering wheel itself can stick, so when you yank hard on it it flies off and whacks you in the face. That's what leaving the bolt in a few threads prevents. While breaking the bolt loose initially, you're on your own! -- Jim ___ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Good news on the 134, I suspect I'm going to go with it in my 190D in the spring. Its not hot enough around here to worry about. I've driven the car 3 summers with no ac at all...

Spent a little time today cleaning the car up, and will try and get to buffing it tomorrow. The damn blower switch locked up on me so I took it apart to try and figure it out. I see it has 3 little rocker things on a shaft that has a tab, which prevents the rocker things from going too far. If they break, it goes too far and the switch gets stuck. Well thats what happened. I just put this switch it also, the other one that was in there did the same thing. Dang. Guess I might have to order a new one. -- Kaleb C.

Re: [MBZ] #14 head
Depending upon the overall condition the price is OK. Not good but OK AVOID the number 14 head. Look on the manifold crossing the engine - near the area where us old timers would be looking for a carbeurator.

[MBZ] #14 head
I know it has been asked before but wanted to know how to check a 300SDL for #14 head. I am debating on buying a 300SDL with a replaced engine, they say it was a new engine but. I would like to make sure it did not have a #14 head. Also what are 300SDL going for these days? Is $3500 unreasonable for an '86?

[MBZ] OT, A water circuit breaker for the home
I was telling SWMBO (my sole partner in building our metal frame home) how great this list is. I told her that our grey water lint problem may be solved thanks to Allan's tip through this list. She suggested I share some things we built into our house that some of you may not be aware of and stated we have three or four things she had never seen or heard of before. After waking up to a broken washer hose in our previouse house, when I read about the Flo Logic, I had one on order that night. The price has tripled since then, but is a better system. It has saved us one big time when the ice maker tube broke. we came home to water on the kitchen floor and that was all. There have been numerous times a leaking toilet or a faucet inside or outside was left on that caused it to shut off, small things, but handy. One of the main things we like about it is the ability to turn off all water to the house with a push of two buttons. If my wife had to turn the water off at the meter, or lose an eye, her nick name would be Patch. Ours has been in service for 12 years, we have it set for 15 minutes because there are only two in the house. When company is here I go back to the 30 minute default. http://www.flologic.com/Automatic-Water-Shutoff-System.html Harry ___ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
