Re: [MBZ] Now I have a bios problem
How do you restore a bios? If you fragged the flash contents you are S*C*R*E*W*E*D. The usual load procedure involves a JTAG port and a special diagnostic utility, dongle, and image to restore the flash to a known configuration. A safe-flash system involves a loader that is _never_ updated, and an updatable partition, so that you can always start over. Costs more.

Re: [MBZ] For Sale: 1995 S500 Coupe
Well given that my only advertisement has been on craigslist Raleigh and Charlotte, I am probably missing a bunch of 'Mercedes folks' in GA, SC and eastern NC who don't regularly check Raleigh or Charlotte. Looking back, I should have put an ad on ATL and Upstate SC and Charleston too, but it's a moot point now. I will have to wait until I get back to China, redo the ads with my father's cell phone number and tighten up the wording to thwart off any deadbeat dregs of society, which unfortunately are all I have heard from so far. Hey, at least the phone number listing that requires the secret decoder ring has eliminated any telemarketers. I really wanted to take care of the hassle of selling it for him while I was home, because I know he's got a lot going on and I guess it's just me trying to be a good son and take care of shit for my father. Is the car worth the bluebook value of $4,950? Definitely. Is the car a good deal at $3,950 with a salvage title and a bit of faded paint? Yes. Is the car an absolute steal at $3,000? Absolutely. Unfortunately it's only 'Mercedes folks' who understand these things though, as most dregs of society only care about mileage and price. These dumbasses don't realize that just the Bosch Euro Xenon headlights alone can fetch at least $1,200 on eBay, if not more. Anyway, to answer your question the car does have a salvage title; however, I have never heard of an insurance company not insuring a car just because it has a salvage title. If so, it's probably a company not worth doing business with anyway.

There was an MB calendar a few years back that had photos of a couple of new MBs that were finished in all chrome. I always wondered how they did that - must have been an early version of this process. I never thought of trying to spray silver for a chrome like finish.

Re: [MBZ] OK - anybody there?
Well done in your industriousness over the past few months. I was doing a carboy a month for a few years. Sixty gallons of beer a year is a bit much and I ran out of people with livers willing to indulge in the heavier beers I made. I gave my brother a half case of something and he drank three over a month or two, then gave me the rest back and returned to drinking canned piss. Even giving away half what I made left me with 25-30 beers a month and I was not up to tackling that. It took me more than a decade to whittle away all I had made.

Got a "leftovers brown" ale done last week and a Maibock Sunday -- started out as a Vienna lager, but I boiled off too much water and it got up to bock strength. The "leftovers" brown is based on the left over dark malts from making Rouge Brewings' Hazelnut Brown, and I like it better than the Hazelnut. That and the Sweet Stout I made in November are the only three beers I've managed to make in a while, too busy or too hot this summer. Won fourth or fifth place in the local club competition with the sweet stout with a score of 39 on the BJCP scale, too -- highest score I've ever seen. With some luck, I'll get a Vienna done in a week or so and then a Kolsch and a couple ales. By that point I'm going to be full up for the season, only me drinking all this stuff, it's easy to become awash in beer!

Re: [MBZ] 2.5D and seafoam
Yes, I think you're correct about B-20 vs. B-99. My point was that some fuel tank additives could be helpful. Greg -Original Message- From: Mercedes [mailto:mercedes-boun...@okiebenz.com] On Behalf Of clay monroe Sent: Monday, December 31, 2012 8:28 PM To: Mercedes Discussion List Subject: Re: [MBZ] 2.5D and seafoam That would be a waste. Once you get to B20, there is no added benefits to be had. IT does cause issues with eating hoses at higher than B30. Some will continue to evangelize B99, but it is really a fuel additive, not a long term fuel due to the damage you cause fuel lines and seals. The solvent value remains the same at B20 as higher ratios without causing fuel line failures. clay On Dec 29, 2012, at 6:26 PM, Greg Fiorentino wrote: > << Far as I am concerned the only treatment for Diesels is to run some > cleaner through it by disconnecting the fuel feed hose.

Re: [MBZ] OK - anybody there?
They are sorta soft with a bit of resistance. When they are hot right
off the cooker they are amazing. The shells are pretty soft so you can
kinda tear them open with your teeth (this is a one-handed operation
because you have a cupful in your other hand) and suck out the peanuts.
You could probably eat the shells if you want some roughage, or chew
them a bit and spit out the shell. Once you get started you can't
stop. Go well with a Holy City Pluff Mud Porter or an Oyster Stout,
especially eating them outdoors with a bbq going.
Off to get a new Milk Stout but no hot boiled ("bawled," to be more
precise) peanuts. The Scotch Ale I had last night was mighty tasty
too. An Oktoberfest will be ready Thursday. I am awash in fresh beer!

[MBZ] R107 wheel upgrades
Had a blow out on right rear, classic center says to use underwhelming tires on stock rims or upsize to a 15inch. Both 14 & 15 inch are becoming harder to source so I looked at upsize x2, I still need good rubber for Froggy. I was able to pick up some 8 hole 16 inch benz rims. What does the group mind think I will have problems with? 1150 is cast on the front side. 7 1/2 Jx16H2 ET-96 PCD 112 Made in Italy I looked at tire sizes to fit and came up with best seeming to be a 205/60/16 in H rated or V. That would have minimal impact on speedo, which is far off anyway. Are these wheels too fat to fit under the fender?

Re: [MBZ] OT - mattresses; was For Sale or steal: 1995 S500 Coupe
Ours is a king, which ratchets up the price considerably. SWMBO will want pretty much what we currently have, which is a Serta or Sealy with the pillow top. Since the markups on bedding are pretty ridiculous, I plan on going around and trying some out, then going to a little mom and pop furniture store in Tampa that will order anything for you and just add a couple hundred on top for their trouble.

Re: [MBZ] OT - mattresses; was For Sale or steal: 1995 S500 Coupe
I would like that info too, please, I need to buy several (newest one is at least 30 years old and shot). I've been told by a reliable source you can get a thin (2") sheet of memory foam at a decent prince (Walmart of a fabric store, I'll have to check) that goes a long way towards reviving a dead mattress, too. Mine is too far gone for that, but a plain coil spring mattress with a thin memory foam top sounds like a great deal to me!

[MBZ] 300E Drivers Side Mirror
While installing the eldest's new car stereo, he reminded me that the adjuster on his drivers side mirror is inoperative, that is, the little black rod is broken. I looked at it when we got the car and determined that it could not be repaired, but subsequently forgot about it since I wasn't driving the car. Anyone (Kaleb?) got a spare laying around or seen one in a pick and pull they could snag? I have checked around here without success.

[MBZ] OT - mattresses; was For Sale or steal: 1995 S500 Coupe
BTW, why do mattresses these days hafta be so thick and have that 2 to 3-inch-thick cushion on top? I bought new set 4 or 5 years ago; overall thickness of the set made the bed so high that I nearly needed a ladder! 'Had stealer take the ridiculously thick box spring back and bring me one only about half that thickness. 'Found a mattress without that thick cushion on top; still some cushion on it but not nearly as thick as most I see in stores. The overall quality is less than I wanted, too, but I don't want that THICK cushion on top. BTW, 'can't even flip these new mattresses for use on either side - sells more mattresses, of course.
