Yes, it looks nice.
Yes, the price is rather excessive.

Re: [MBZ] Wilton needs this for his new ride

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

Sounds like a similar experience I had with my big brother when he had a 1968 
Pontiac Firebird with the 400 CI engine, Hurst factory shifter and some 
outrageous stock rear end.  It was yellow with a black top.

He picked me up after basketball practice one night and drove me home.

When I walked in to the house, Mom and Dad were sitting in their usual spots in 
the family room.  Mom puts down her book, Dad his Wall Street Journal, and both 
say almost simultaneously, “Are you OK?  You look like you just saw a ghost.”

“Nope.  I’m fine.”  Head to room without further discussion.

First and last time I ever rode with my brother when he had that car.

Re: [MBZ] Wilton needs this for his new ride

[Meade Dillon via Mercedes]

One of my teachers in high school would sometimes entertain us with tales
from his youth in small town Iowa, he and his brothers would compete to see
who had the fastest ride, which of course meant there had to be a test of
some sort to prove who had the fastest ride.  He recounted how one day his
big brother rolled up to the house in a '56 or '57 Chevy, rolled down the
window and told him to get in for a "test ride".  Teacher (probably about
15 or 16 at the time) knew he was in trouble because the car was shaking
really hard at idle, his brother had to shout to be heard, and there were
no seat belts of course.  He couldn't show any fear in front of his older
brother, so he obliged and got in, and the resulting "test drive" was so
terrifying that when they returned home, he got out and turned to his
brother and basically said "You win, and I am never going to ride in
another car with you driving again."

So those stories illustrate where my ideas for a rat rod come from.
Probably not going to get there, messing around with mechanical injection
compression ignition...

I'll keep y'all updated for sure, Meade. 
I wish some other power company "could" supply us, but Duke and the major power 
company in South Florida seem to have a lot of influence with the state 
regulatory board, so about all we could do is move to an area served by one of 
the co-op power companies.

Thanks, Rick. I tried googling but must have used the wrong words. I pass this

My ideal rat rod would simply exude danger and power, with no gimmicks. 
Painted with primer, no added nothing but noise and power.


In college one summer Saturday night I was driving home after a second 
shift at a food warehouse, '63 Beetle.  Coming up on a red light, there's 
a jacked up camaro, 70's, primer paint, huge slicks on the rear axle. 
He's stopped in the right lane, I'm coasting up the left trying to time it 
so I hit the light rolling in first and can blast right by him.  I time it 
right, blow right by with the flat four air cooled engine wailing and 
shift into second, watching him the rear view mirror now.


I see and hear him launch, front end lifts but the front wheels don't, 
smoke rolling from both rear slicks and it sound like no muffler at all on 
that V8.


I started rolling up windows and reaching to close the sunroof (huge 
canvas affair), too late.  Camaro burns past, tire smoke engulfs me, I 
kept smiling until I fell asleep later that night.

Re: [MBZ] Rear Window Failed Down/Open

[Max Dillon via Mercedes]

Does that school of thought like to employ designs that encourage 
"self-correcting mistakes"?  For example, child rolls up power window, pinches 
fingers, "Waah!!!".  Child learns (self-corrects) not to pinch fingers in 
power windows, and that self-correcting remains in force until death bed.

Re: [MBZ] Wilton needs this for his new ride

[Joel Cairo via Mercedes]

I am now a UROlogist!

Seriously, I am a troublemaker in the local community.  I called myself 
an agitator until a friend pointed out that was a no-no around here as 
that was what the old crackas called the black folks who came here to 
stir things up back in the 60s.  It is still a bit of sore point though 
my good friend who was a major agitator back then loves it and eggs me 
on.  I hear there is a future in it.  Maybe when we finally win the 
Waawww it will be OK.


I speak Truth to Power and they don't like it.  I am a part of a cabal 
in that regard, they fear our presence at their schemings. Even when we 
aren't there we live in their minds.  The gummint does not like the 
subjects to speak up, esp when some of them are very invested in their 
shady schemes.  Certain elected officials either go out of their way to 
avoid us, or make it a point to berate us for calling them out on their 
foolishness (which is way too easy to do, but generally fun).  Others 
have become friends, which is interesting.  The paper does, however, 
like it as it gives them something interesting to print and occasionally 
generates an ongoing letters-to-the-editor thread on the editorial 
page.  I give great quotes for articles and TV interviews, write LTEs 
and op-eds, generally be a PITA.


My wife joined in 3 or 4 years ago with a really good LTE, and it got 
her a reprimand at work from the head guy, first thing in the morning 
even before she had seen the LTE (them good ol' boys have an early long 
reach!) and 2 or 3 LTEs in response the next week or so, none of them 
laudatory.  At first she didn't even know what he was going on about, 
and he wasn't too enthusiastic about it either but had to appease the 
good ol' boys and report back she had been properly reprimanded.  Her 
boss liked it but told her to lay low for awhile...   It was awesome, 
it's great to cause headaches, dyspepsia, constipation, and high blood 
pressure in the scalawags when they read the morning paper.   I saw one 
of them later, a state rep who had installed his brother (who owns a 
Greek restaurant!) on the board of the place, and called him out on 
that, he protested too much with much harrumphing and blathering, said 
his brother knew about food service so could help the cafeteria 
operations...  I saw him a coupla weeks ago and was going to say hi but 
he saw me coming and turned away.  SCORE!!!


You know that old saying, when you throw a rock at a pack of dogs the 
one that yelps is the one you hit...

Yep.  I was trying to think how to say it - the girls swarmed around the 
ruffians, while we nerds or those they viewed as nerds and working hard to 
get an education and prepare for a better life went "without."  Their loss, 
I always thought.

Re: [MBZ] Wilton needs this for his new ride

[Joel Cairo via Mercedes]

When I was in 2nd grade, the principal (who I later learned to have been 
a pedophile) called my mother for a conference and told her I was going 
to be a JD (school lingo for juvenile delinquent) unless she got me 
under control.  Though I peaked early it did not manifest at that time 
with the ladies.  Later on in HS I was a honorrollee and marginal JD, 
and it did not manifest much either with the ladies.  Now I am an AD 
according to some commentators, and the ladies love me but, alas, having 
just one (well, two if you count my daughter) I am unable to capitalize 
on that achievement!  Old Benzes seem to have no effect on their

Re: [MBZ] Request for help

[Joel Cairo via Mercedes]

That is correct.  I had the powerco come and run a new line to the house 
for 300A service.  They came off the transformer on the pole with new 
line, ran it to a junction box, then ran new underground line to my 
meter box (which a powerco guy I know had given me off his truck a 
coupla years prior, so even that was theirs).  I had to supply a 3" PVC 
conduit fitting on my meter box, they provided 3" conduit the rest of 
the way to the junction box, and put in their meter on my box.  I have 
no idea why they didn't have a 3" fitting for the box ("we just don't do 
it"), I had to go off to get one.


Basically anything electrical on their side of the meter is theirs (as 
is the meter).  It might be a local thing about the pipe and connector 
thing on the house that the lines go into on their way to the meter.

Listers,

The local veterinary  who has a 10-20,000 square foot animal hospital has

had

a failure of the power companies line from the pole to the clinic.
  He's essentially out of business with the computer system, xray system,

and

A/C not working since the daily temps are in the 90F's around here.

Duke Power Company said they "would try to expedite" their repair order,
but Duke has not been "user friendly" in this area, so when it will get

fixed is

anyones guess.

His wife said they would rent a large portable diesel power until capable

of

powering the whole clinic if one was available since they will be losing a

great

deal of money every day they are down, and the animals under their care

will

be suffering.

Does anyone know what a company that rents portable power units would be
called and how listed on the internet?
They have three large A/C units, and probably use an equal amount of power
or more for other systems in the hospital.

Thanks,
Gerry

Try a company called "Big Rents". I use them from time to time when I need
a large piece of equipment for a short time.

They are a nationwide network of companies that rent heavy equipment for
just such an event as your friend has had. They do a complete package with
delivery of the item, then pick up. Price has always been quite reasonable
for what I got.

Rat rods are interesting. Some are pretty decent and some are junk but 
all are different. I like car shows but I truly do not care if I ever 
see another perfect big block Camaro trailer queen. I want to see cars

Re: [MBZ] Wilton needs this for his new ride

[Curt Raymond via Mercedes]

I've been watching Roadkill for years. Freiburger and Finnegan are the bomb. Or 
rather whatever they've been "working" on looks like its been bombed when 
they're done, like normal people rather than TV show.

Theres also a magazine which is mildly entertaining...

If you can't handle the idea of getting into a car that has the windows closed 
when its hot out you'd need the windows to automatically roll down.
I don't understand the kind of people that can't simply roll down the windows 
for themselves...

Re: [MBZ] Rear Window Failed Down/Open

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

It’s a function of the “convenience module” in later models, from the W140 on.

The convenience module controls window operation and some other minor 
functions, of which I can’t recall.  Since it doesn’t have non-volatile memory 
if power is lost to the module it needs the windows to be “synced” so that it 
can properly control them.  The module needs to know where the windows are 
position-wise as well as what direction they’re moving.  This is to manage the 
auto up/down and reversing functions.

The process is typically to run the window all the way up and hold the button 
in for ten seconds.  Repeat for the down position, too.  Once this is done for 
each window it should work normally.  Until the window is synced it will only 
move a short distance with each press of the button.  That’s what Bob is 
experiencing right now.

Natural gas for a rental won’t happen. They don’t exist, or if they do, I’ve never seen one.  The availability of fuel and difficulty in establishing a connection makes it near impossible to do. The volume of fuel required for a decent sized set would require a large connection and completely different metering and regulation than what is used for residential or commercial buildings.


Any rental will be a trailer mounted diesel set.  They will have to employ an 
electrician to make the connection to their building.

Based on Gerry’s description, 10kW won’t come close to cutting it.  With three 
AC units and the remaining loads, I’m guessing a 50kW would probably be a unit 
that would do the job.  That’s a wild guess, of course, without having more 
details.  An X-ray machine is a really horrible, nasty load for a generator, 
too.  Huge inrush currents that make voltage regulators go crazy.

Ring Power is another possibility, but that’s the local Caterpillar guys and 
they will be stupid expensive.

Listers,

The local veterinary  who has a 10-20,000 square foot animal hospital has had a 
failure of the power companies line from the pole to the clinic.
He's essentially out of business with the computer system, xray system, and A/C 
not working since the daily temps are in the 90F's around here.

Duke Power Company said they "would try to expedite" their repair order, but Duke has not 
been "user friendly" in this area, so when it will get fixed is anyones guess.

His wife said they would rent a large portable diesel power until capable of 
powering the whole clinic if one was available since they will be losing a 
great deal of money every day they are down, and the animals under their care 
will be suffering.

Does anyone know what a company that rents portable power units would be called 
and how listed on the internet?
They have three large A/C units, and probably use an equal amount of power or 
more for other systems in the hospital.

Thanks,
Gerry

never seen one.  The availability of fuel and difficulty in establishing a 
connection makes it near impossible to do. The volume of fuel required for a 
decent sized set would require a large connection and completely different 
metering and regulation than what is used for residential or commercial 
buildings.

Any rental will be a trailer mounted diesel set.  They will have to employ an 
electrician to make the connection to their building.

Based on Gerry’s description, 10kW won’t come close to cutting it.  With three 
AC units and the remaining loads, I’m guessing a 50kW would probably be a unit 
that would do the job.  That’s a wild guess, of course, without having more 
details.  An X-ray machine is a really horrible, nasty load for a generator, 
too.  Huge inrush currents that make voltage regulators go crazy.

Ring Power is another possibility, but that’s the local Caterpillar guys and 
they will be stupid expensive.

Listers,

The local veterinary  who has a 10-20,000 square foot animal hospital has had a 
failure of the power companies line from the pole to the clinic.
 He's essentially out of business with the computer system, xray system, and

Duke Power Company said they "would try to expedite" their repair order, but 
Duke has not been "user friendly" in this area, so when it will get fixed is

His wife said they would rent a large portable diesel power until capable of

Does anyone know what a company that rents portable power units would be called 
and how listed on the internet?
They have three large A/C units, and probably use an equal amount of power or 
more for other systems in the hospital.

Re: [MBZ] OT: Bicycle repair

[Curt Raymond via Mercedes]

Thats the only way I've ever seen a freewheel removed.
I discovered last night that the bolt (for lack of a better, or correct, term) 
that goes through the wheel seems to be bent on the freewheel side. However the 
bend is outside of the wheel so the wheel spins true, weird...

It's probably got caged bearings in it, in which case you can't take out the 
right side balls and clean them without the freewheel remover, but you can 
still take off the left side bearing cone and locknut and slide the axle out to 
the right and pack some grease in there. 
I suspect the bearing cones will be heavily pitted. Up to you whether to buy 
new cones and balls or just grease it all up and put it back together. 
If it's got loose balls, you can do pretty much anything you want with the 
bearings without removing the freewheel, but it's a PITA to work on the right 
side because it's buried behind the freewheel. 

Removing a freewheel that hasn't been disturbed in 30 years is a different sort 
of fun. 
I'd suggest using the axle nut to hold the freewheel tool in full engagement, 
clamp the tool in a vise, and turn the wheel with both hands.
As soon as it starts turning, you've got to stop and loosen the axle nut.

Re: [MBZ] Request for help

Gerry - Please keep us updated, it's great to solve a real-world problem!

I would imagine that a generator running on natural gas would be less
expensive than diesel fuel, but sourcing the natural gas could be an issue
all by itself.

Another thought: Maybe time to see if another electrical power provider
would like to swoop in and take away Duke's customer?

[MBZ] Request for help

[archer75--- via Mercedes]

Listers,

The local veterinary  who has a 10-20,000 square foot animal hospital has had a 
failure of the power companies line from the pole to the clinic.
 He's essentially out of business with the computer system, xray system, and 
A/C not working since the daily temps are in the 90F's around here.

Duke Power Company said they "would try to expedite" their repair order, but 
Duke has not been "user friendly" in this area, so when it will get fixed is 
anyones guess. 

His wife said they would rent a large portable diesel power until capable of 
powering the whole clinic if one was available since they will be losing a 
great deal of money every day they are down, and the animals under their care 
will be suffering.

Does anyone know what a company that rents portable power units would be called 
and how listed on the internet?
They have three large A/C units, and probably use an equal amount of power or 
more for other systems in the hospital.  

Thanks,
Gerry
