Re: [MBZ] Rather buy Russian

[Curley McLain via Mercedes]

Our Prez is not corrupt, but the media IS.   Media = -ist ministry of 
propaganda.


After 3 yrs of sorting through his trash and underwear and rectal exams, 
they still can't find a bit of wrongdoing.   No other prez has had even 
1/3 of that examination.

Re: [MBZ] OT: Heat Pump Demand Defrost?

[Scott Ritchey via Mercedes]

Thanks for that link.  I saw that thread but had not read all of it until after 
I saw it again in your post.  It was most helpful.  At the  end of that thread 
they talk about the 47D01U-843 board, which is the one I'm considering.  It 
costs a bit more but won't need a relay or other modifications, just some 
configuring.  The pinout is different from the stock Carrier board so I'm 
thinking about making "gender bender" cables to go  between with the stock 
Carrier connectors and the new board to make it easy to stick the stock board 
back in (warranty reasons).

Re: [MBZ] OT: Heat Pump Demand Defrost?

[Scott Ritchey via Mercedes]

If I had a conventional air handler I'd agree.  
But my Unico air handler is a "high velocity" design that's supposed to output 
higher temp air through 2 inch diameter ducts that mixes with room air.  The 
new heat pump is a 3 ton 14 SEER Carrier unit (very simple).  The existing 
(2005 vintage) air handler is rated at 3-3.5 tons and only the leaky coil (and 
TXV) were replaced.  I am at the low end of the spec CFM range but I am within 
the spec air flow range.  The blower speed is not adjustable but it has a 
restrictor plate to throttle air flow.  This house was built in 1850 something 
and there was no good way to retrofit  full size ducts so we went with this 
oddball high velocity system.  It actually works well except in one room where 
the mini ducts are too long.  The old R22 heat pump which was replaced was also 
3 tons.

If you’ve got a phone with a microphone the listening capabilities are present. 
Don’t ask me how I know.

And I would never, ever allow one of those things in my house. I'm struggling 
right now trying to find a new TV that isn’t “smart”.

The CTO of Vizio was just quoted at CES last week about how if they weren’t 
able to collect data on their customers and resell it that TVs would cost much 
more. That’s how well they’re monetizing YOUR personal data.

to providing kits made from Harbor Fright parts and pieces, as well as 
developing pay for play video, while making the free stuff into marketing for 
his products to be less useful.

Thanks for all the input.  Kent gave in and sold them to me without his kit.  
The price ended up being better than the eBay prices with the New Years 
discount.   
He said they are pretty much out of stock again.

Re: [MBZ] '58 Pontiac Chieftain needs a little work

[Floyd Thursby via Mercedes]

Yeah I think my dad had an older one when I was little, his driver, 
maybe late 40s or early 50s.  I recall it was a light green and a pretty 
nice car and I liked that lighted thing

One of my first memories is going with my parents to pick up their
brand new (first new car ever!) 58 Pontiac Super Chief, which I
believe had a more powerful engine and some other doodads.  Baby
blue, blue interior, blue metal dashboard! The gas filler was
behind the back-up light which was always a challenge for the gas
monkeys.  My mom would send me out to show them where it was which
was a great fun.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJwRCzcYiD8


My mom mostly drove it (my Dad let my mom drive the "new" car
while he usually drove some old used thing).  I recall it's demise
when some guy made a left turn in front of my dad on a green light
and the guy got t-boned, which totaled the car.  I was maybe 8 or
9, we were on a "Sunday drive" and it happened in Kendallville,
IN.  My dad was very upset, this car was his baby.  I think he
bought a used fairly new 63 Catalina, which had air conditioning
and a reverberator on the AM radio!

You nailed it. He makes money off of dumb asses like all those people on that 
fake book 123 list that fall all over themselves over Kent and some other kid 
who supposedly runs a shop but is seriously clueless. I would understand such a 
group buying from Kent because they did not know any better but when some old 
timers with decades of expertise show up they choose not to listed to advise 
and instead continue to flock to Kent. It’s a case of millennials not knowing 
what they don’t know and not taking advice.

lighted hood ornament in the shape of Chief Pontiac's head. S cool.

Re: [MBZ] '58 Pontiac Chieftain needs a little work

[Floyd Thursby via Mercedes]

One of my first memories is going with my parents to pick up their brand 
new (first new car ever!) 58 Pontiac Super Chief, which I believe had a 
more powerful engine and some other doodads.  Baby blue, blue interior, 
blue metal dashboard!  The gas filler was behind the back-up light which 
was always a challenge for the gas monkeys.  My mom would send me out to 
show them where it was which was a great fun.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJwRCzcYiD8

My mom mostly drove it (my Dad let my mom drive the "new" car while he 
usually drove some old used thing).  I recall it's demise when some guy 
made a left turn in front of my dad on a green light and the guy got 
t-boned, which totaled the car.  I was maybe 8 or 9, we were on a 
"Sunday drive" and it happened in Kendallville, IN.  My dad was very 
upset, this car was his baby.  I think he bought a used fairly new 63 
Catalina, which had air conditioning and a reverberator on the AM radio!

It’s a wash. The German eBay guy is about the same - but you’ll get them within 
a few days via DHL. I don’t buy from Ken for the reasons stated.

The German eBay guy is very good, I have bought from him a number of times.

Re: [MBZ] Rather buy Russian

Canada is a vast natural resource producer.  Somebody is making big bank on all 
the mining and other natural goodies.  Mr. president has given the XL pipe a go 
ahead, so that would be pushing oil sands fluids to major ports way south.  And 
that pipe to Vancouver looks like a go as well.

Politicians are a vile plague upon the populace.

When we lived south of Calhan, Colorado, one of the fellows we knew there
told of a winter where they had -40F for four weeks. He said that when it

Sounds like Canada. We have oil but we cannot sell it because we cannot 
get it to customers. We import oil that we would not have to if we had a 
pipeline going east but Quebec won't have it but hold their hand out for 
money from the federal government that would have more money to give if 
only the oil was moving.


British Columbia uses and sells coal but won't agree to a pipeline from 
Alberta to move oil to the coast.


Meanwhile our purchasing power has gone to the dumpster because our 
dollar is worth nothing and we don't produce anything so we have to buy 
it from China. No one wants to invest here because we are not looking to 
do business. We just want to tax you so that we can give the money to 
fools who don't deserve it.


And the young have been brainwashed to believe they must vote for the 
idiots who think that we alone can save the planet if we tax ourselves 
to the poor house for anything carbon related. And we get no credit for 
producing clean energy. Manitoba has hydro electric dams but we are 
being forced to swallow the carbon tax idiocy.


So far as I can see our only immediate solace can be found in the fact 
that although our PM is  incompetent, at least he does not appear to be

Being a busy person, SWMBA has collected periodicals that should be read.  
Industry stuff mostly. I am getting more versed in what goes on in the energy 
sector.

There was an article about pipelines.  How the media portrays massive 
opposition to them and just how off base the perception is.  There was mention 
though of how some jurisdicioins would rather cut off their nose to spite their 
face.

Re: [MBZ] Alaska

[Clay Monroe via Mercedes]

The landscape is more akin to chicago in the middle of a winter storm.  All 
people look like walking comforters.  Hard to tell curves from lard.  Even in 
the stores, the population looks haggard and bleached, wrapped in thick bed 
spreads and logging boots.  Attack of the really cold zombies.

I did read up on the jeep in the garage.  Typical daimler chrysler quality 
compromised 19 year old vehicle.  I am not sure that scheduled maintanance has 
been done.  This thing creaks and groans like a rusted out junker.  Has 
original hoses that leak coolant, probably not lubricated in ages, and oil may 
not be fresh nor fluids.   May have been washed last spring, but not detailed 
in four years.

If it were a benz, and I had all my tools and cleaning kit, I would be all over 
this.  Not my car, not my area of expertise working on OBDII troubles.  Not a 
diesel, so pretty worthless to me.

[MBZ] OT - Parliament Building in Ottawa

[Randy Bennell via Mercedes]

https://ottawacitizen.com/news/local-news/centre-block-a-tour-of-parliament

This is a link to a series of videos showing the inside of the Centre 
Block on Parliament Hill in Ottawa.


The building is being shut down for 10 years or more in order to 
re-furbish it. The House of Commons has moved next door into West Block 
and the Senate has moved across the street to the building that was once 
the main train station.


My elder son Geoffrey, is an architect in Ottawa and has been working on 
this project for a year or more already.

Re: [MBZ] OT: Heat Pump Demand Defrost?

[Mitch Haley via Mercedes]

Sounds like your brand new system is too big for the available airflow. 
Refrigeration units are more efficient at lower temperature rise. 
If you're seeing more than a 20-25° rise from return to supply temp you need 
more air.
(like 68° thermostat setting and 88° supply outlet temps) 
It might be because the installer didn't set the blower speed right or it might 
be because your ducts are too small. 
I'd check the static pressure (pressure in the supply duct minus pressure going 
into the air handler) and find out if you're overworking the new blower. If you 
have the install book it should have some pressure info, but IIRC anything over 
one inch is considered bad. 

Luckily my house had a 100,000 btu furnace in it, so although the ducts were 
marginal for the original design they're oversized for the 46k furnace and 1.5 
ton AC I put in.

I think their site decides I'm browsing too quick and must be a bot so they 
shitcan my IP address for a day. 
Most recent example: Show me batteries for a 2007 Saturn Ion2
Ok, do you want Platinum, Gold, Silver, or Crap?
Gold. 
Here are our two group 78 gold batteries, one's 149.99 the other's out of 
stock. 
Go back one page.
So now I'm back at the page asking me to refine the search for Platinum etc. 
I click Silver. 
It tells me the site is temporarily down for maintenance. 
I go back to the homepage.
Down for maintenance. 
AAP is done with me for the day, and I don't get to price the other batteries.

Re: [MBZ] OT: Heat Pump Demand Defrost?

[Mitch Haley via Mercedes]

I think Rheem = Emerson (don't know) and if I'm right you'd need to modify the 
printed circuit or install an external relay to make it work.
The Rheems go for about $60 on Amazon. 
 
With Rheem to Carrier I'm sure you'd have to reverse the power to the reversing 
valve. 
Almost everybody uses reversing valves that default to heat mode when not 
powered. 
Rheem, last I knew, used reversing valves that are normally cooling. 

I'd go to that DIY discussion board I linked earlier and see if Beenthere is 
still around for specific advice for your new unit.
Or I can see if I have his email address on my other computer. 

This is what I should have done, adding a relay would have been simpler than 
tracking down the sensors that didn't come with the board I bought and I would 
have saved about $60.

[MG via Mercedes]

If you can lift the battery out straight up 
then it should work.


 On my w123s I sometimes have trouble 
getting the 49 battery out from under the 
cowling lip even though there is more room 
above the battery. Things are a little 
cramped in there and the taller battery would 
never get in there. Too bad as it sounds like 
a good replacement.

 From what I can find they are a bit smaller

The Battery Council International (BCI) Battery Replacement Data Book,
2014 Edition says,

 L   W   H  LW   H

Group 49:   353 175 190 13-15/16  6-15/16  7-1/2

Group 31T:  330 173 24013 6-13/16  9-7/16


Interstate says their 31-MHD battery is
   13" L x 6-3/4" W x 9-3/8" H

So the Group 31 battery is about 2" higher than the Group 49 battery.

The ODB connector near the battery is 10-3/8" above the bottom of
the battery tray. That gives at least 1" between the terminals on
the Group 31T battery and the underside of the padding of the hood.

Friend bought a heavy duty truck battery and it turned out to be 6 volts! Seems 
the truck had 4-6volt batteries in series for a 24 volt starter, or something 
like that. That was a long time ago.
