Re: [MBZ] F/S Canuck Diesel G-Wagen
It is VERY easy to get oarts for a HJ or BJ Landcruiser! Just call a Canadian dealer and deal with them! I used to have a lot of US customers needing parts. No biggie. The US dealer network just likes to play dumb and say they don't exist. They have the same info and can get the parts but seem to be too lazy to do it. That was my experience with 13 years at Toyota dealers. I sent cruiser parts all over the world because I would take the time to do the work.

Re: [MBZ] GT3-RSR
I used to go to the Houston dealer that was close by, drive up under the portico, park there, get out all nasty from doing whatever, and go into the parts counter to get an odd or end. Brunnhilde looked quite content sitting there among the new SLs and Ss and the swells. I always wondered if any of them would be visiting in 30 years. I had this fantasy of winning the lottery, going there like that, parking Brunnhilde in front, seeing if I could get a salesperson's attention, then walking around saying, Gimme this one, and that one, and that Lambo over there, and that Ferrari too, and maybe a GL diesel if you have one. I want to order a Maybach and an SLR too. Oh, and Brunnhilde there needs a going over and a wash and wax too. When can you have them ready?

Re: [MBZ] Stealership prices
I thought replacement keys were a dealer item only. I had to bring in the title. (except for my '80) Same for the guide pin. The 8mm 4 one at the top of the head. I looked all over and posted that I needed one and couldn't find one. As for the hose, I must admit I only checked a couple of sites on-line and only found the plug.

[MBZ] OT: Mensa in the News+Donalds Medical Research
On Tuesday, Jan. 20, 2009, our nation tuned in to see the 44th President take the oath of office. Jim Werdell, Chairman of Mensa International, was interviewed by Good Morning America on advice that he would give President Obama as he takes on the office of President. The non-partisan piece also featured presidents from a variety of organizations. You can view the clip at:: http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=6702470. Hi Donald, Just happened to think: If you were a Mensa member, you could probably put out the word that you wanted someone to do medico-legal research and you'd probably find several good medical library researchers in short order. Mensa has lots of middle-level people like that. Gerry -- next part -- No virus found in this outgoing message.

Re: [MBZ] F/S Canuck Diesel G-Wagen
Even in Canada, parts for them are starting to get a little hard to come by. The 3B and 2H have been out of production for almost 24 years, and parts for them are starting to get a little on the scarce side. I keep an interchange list that lists the cross references for everything in the glove box in case I need something while on the road. A little later in production, the 12HT and 13BT are also out of production, and Toyota doesn't seem all that jazzed about continuing to support them. The real unfortunate thing is the 1HZ and 1HD serieses they'll continue to support them, but those two are OHC belt driven engines... It's a fun truck for road trips, for sure, and the way mine is set up now, an easier drive through rocky trails than a 300GD which is geared a bit too tall for some of the rocky trails around here. If I had to daily drive it, though, I'd have a 300GD instead of the cruiser, as 300GD parts are as easy as a phone call to rusty and have them appear in a couple of days. Not quite as easy with th BJ-60... On Fri, Jan 23, 2009 at 09:18:10AM +, Jeff Zedic wrote: It is VERY easy to get oarts for a HJ or BJ Landcruiser!

Re: [MBZ] How often?
..Perhaps Roger can comment as to why he is stuck with only a new C-Class every other year... First, Roger will point out that it's actually every seven years or so, not every other. As to people keeping cars in the desert and at home, that's not so unusual. Why drive the 3000 mile round trip if one can afford otherwise? For example, my MB sales guy sells two S-Classes every year to a local real estate mogul, one delivered here in Seattle and the other delivered in Palm Springs. The owners, elderly now, commute back and forth in their bizjet. BTW, her trade-in W221, the Seattle car, was the same Barolo Red as my C300. The owner of Barrier MB in Bellevue WA commutes the 1.1 miles from his Hunt's Point estate to the store in his Maybach 57 or his Porsche 997 Turbo and keeps whatever he needs in Palm Springs. He also has a sizable yacht somewhere around here. He also owns the local Audi, Porsche and Volvo outlets. And my C300, the eighth MB in 35 years, is the best one of all.

Yeah, there are thousands of winter cars down here which are stored over the summer months. Most of them though are clapped out 107's or 129's that spend most of the winter months at the dealership trying to get them to run after 6 months of storage.

We used to deliver a Cadillac CTS to Palm Beach, Florida every year for an old lady my wife knew. It cost with airfare for 2 and 2 nights in hotel, food and fuel ~ $1000 less for us to drive it down than to have it delivered. Considerably less than an extra car would. She finally moved down there to stay, too bad I liked those trips.

OK, stupid me, here we go again. When charging a battery with a battery charger, if you have it set on say, 20 amps, and its showing more than that, like 38 amps for example, what does that mean? It should usually show less than what its set at, and go down as the battery charges, correct? -- Kaleb C.

Re: [MBZ] charging question
Like Craig implied, if it can pump 20A at 13-14v, it can pump more amps at a lower voltage. If 38A for five minutes won't get you up to at least 12.0v, you've probably got a pretty good short in the battery, or you've got the cables hooked up backwards. Disconnect charger if anything gets hot or battery starts hissing. My old 6A charger pops a thermal overload protector after a couple of minutes at 8A. ___ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com

Re: [MBZ] Stealership prices and how to get the attention of the yuppie car salesperson
We have a few great dealers in town here. Whenever there, I always have a look around, not at the cars I might buy used one day, but the ones I could probably never afford new, or even used. I love mechanical things, so the more bits and pieces a car has, the better to me. At our dealer, they always have an SLR and a Maybach on the floor. Neither car will ever live in my garage, but I'm glad there are companies like Mercedes building these cars, just as I'm glad there's a RR, an Enzo, and a Carrera GT. The SLR can be looked at as silly in ways, as you can have a SL 65 for a third the price, with similar enough performance figures, but that's not the point of the SLR. These cars are kind of future time capsules, of what we can do automotively at the moment, much like what a RUF CTR was in the late 80s, or a Ferrari F40 was. As for the stuff I an interested in buying 5-10 years down the road, I will stop and have a look at that. Currently, I've been looking at a few used E Classes, having given up after no luck on finding a nice old W126. I'm not even sure the model number of what I'm looking at, W201 I think? Whenever in the dealer, I always stop and have a look at the current S550. I'm not in the market for one now, but by the time the next car needs replacing, in about 7-8 years, the S550 is sure on my list. :-) I'm trying to think 10 years down the road too, and what my backside will appreciate at that time. I'm sure seat heaters and massage will be appreciated much more than they are today. lol. Based on surrent quality control reports, I think the current S Class cars are going to make fine used cars down the road. Ok, if I want to be silly, a 5.5 AMG G Wagon would be fun too. It does snow here 6 months out of the year. It's like a Hummer that went to charm school, kinda. lol Ok, enough rambling, dinner is ready here.

Rich Thomas wrote: That thing has more buttons on the panel than the space shuttle. I thought the TD's HVAC system was bad -- that thing would be a nightmare. Actually, having spent an hour or so today diagnosing my 140's HVAC, I have to say it is a real delight compared to the Type III in my olde 300D. You just push a couple of buttons to enter diagnostic mode, and it tells you the values for every sensor, module, and whatnot in the system. All seven (or more) temperature sensor values, refrigerant pressure, blower motor voltage, and so on. Then the manual tells you where everything is, what the values should be, and how to test it, so diagnosis is just a matter of knowing how to use a multimeter. This compared with chasing vacuum leaks all over creation. The only downside is that you can't fix a 140 with a golf tee. And later 140s have a much simpler ACC interface. It looks like I've got a bad blower motor regulator. This seems to be a common problem; note that the eBay car has a brand new one.

Re: [MBZ] They just about give away 140's these days
I was going to ask you how you did all that then I remembered you had the later 140, I have the earlier version which I dont think works the same as yours. Tom Savage wrote: Rich Thomas wrote: That thing has more buttons on the panel than the space shuttle. I thought the TD's HVAC system was bad -- that thing would be a nightmare. Actually, having spent an hour or so today diagnosing my 140's HVAC, I have to say it is a real delight compared to the Type III in my olde 300D. You just push a couple of buttons to enter diagnostic mode, and it tells you the values for every sensor, module, and whatnot in the system. All seven (or more) temperature sensor values, refrigerant pressure, blower motor voltage, and so on. Then the manual tells you where everything is, what the values should be, and how to test it, so diagnosis is just a matter of knowing how to use a multimeter. This compared with chasing vacuum leaks all over creation. The only downside is that you can't fix a 140 with a golf tee. And later 140s have a much simpler ACC interface. It looks like I've got a bad blower motor regulator. This seems to be a common problem; note that the eBay car has a brand new one.

Re: [MBZ] charging question
I think this battery may be a gonner. It also only gets up to about 11 volts showing while charging. Yup. The non-regulated chargers' 'current' settings are just voltage settings, which will put out the advertised amount of current into a discharged (but good) battery. If the battery is shorted, they'll often put out more. To the detriment of the battery, and possibly the charger. You've got a shorted cell. 2V each, it should have been charging at 13-15 volts. -- Jim ___ http://www.okiebenz.com For new and used parts go to www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
