Re: [MBZ] Why U no Turnz?!
I am thinking we should all be removing the tumblers on a regular basis and give them a huge cleaning up. Would keep our cars from locking us out. Max, I had the option to use the spray stuff or a smaller liquid bottle to inject the stuff. Poking the key in and jiggling for a few minutes every day served to help the goo flow over parts. The gunk coming out got blacker and thicker each day. Five days in, I used the finish sander to assist the gunk. The key was fully inserted into the tumbler and I placed the sander head on the key head. I applied a variety of pressures to the key and moved it around the cardinal points to make sure every booger let loose. First attempt did not make it work, so I zapped it a few more times until the key decided to turn. clay On May 13, 2014, at 2:17 PM, Meade Dillon wrote: > That's awesome!

Re: [MBZ] Why U no Turnz?!
Another minor solution I undertook today was to plug the exhaust leak at the cross member. Frosch has the H cross pipe and my indy told me the driver side had a leak that could be patched with a welder. I had seen emissions coming out of the underside of that hole and figured it would be simple. Today I bit the bullet and hit Meineke. Manager got me right on the lift and had the welder dude drop a bead all the way around. Job done, manager give it to me as a freebie. Welder dude pointed out passenger side had small leak and the pipe weld was also failing. Now I have to order a full pipe set from the Sexy Chowda King clay On May 13, 2014, at 4:22 PM, WILTON wrote: > Attach key to vibrating plate; insert key; turn sander on; rotate key. > > Wilt > > - Original Message - From: "Meade Dillon" > To: "Mercedes Discussion List" > Sent: Tuesday, May 13, 2014 5:17 PM > Subject: Re: [MBZ] Why U no Turnz?! > > >> That's awesome!
