Re: [MBZ] Glow plug adventure
Ideas, no guarantees... Soak it in good penetrant. PB Blaster, Kroil, or ATF/Acetone mix. Do it several times. Warm up the engine, then hit the plug with cold spray (dust-off spray can held upside down). Use a six point socket or box wrench. If that fails you might need one of those sockets that are meant for stripped or rounded bolt heads. They have sharp edges that bite into the fastener. I'm not sure I've seen them in a deep socket so that might be a bit of a challenge to find. If the stop lever won't stop it, I think that indicates a linkage problem. If it won't shut off with the key, that's a vacuum problem. Look for vacuum lines that were accidentally dislodged by your other work.

Re: [MBZ] My first car
Yup - mine was a 1951 Beetle, it was mostly black, chipping away to reveal yellow. green, blue, etc. colors underneath. I don't know what color it was originally. I think I bought it in 1965. it burned/leaked a quart of oil a week, so I used the drained 50W oil from Dad's Cessna 195 which held 5 gallons of oil that was changed every 25 hours. The split rear window had been replaced with one piece of glass, though it did still have the semaphore turn signal arms in the rear door posts.

Re: [MBZ] Glow plug adventure
Is that loose vacuum line the fuel shut-off hose? I assume you are aware that the way to stop these old diesels is to shut off the fuel. When you turn off the key, it causes the vacuum solenoid to shut off the fuel at the injection pump. My vacuum solenoid has been broken for a while so when I stop the car, I have to pop the hood and push down on the fuel linkage rod to shut off the fuel. On mine, there is a red label on a tab that says it is the fuel shutoff. I have the new vacuum solenoid but have not managed to install it yet.

I even tried the stop lever which seemed to sort of bog it down but it kept running. The only thing I could think to do was dump the clutch and make it stall. That worked. So, is this all an indication that the linkage is messed up since it wouldn’t shut off even with the stop lever? Or did I knock some vacuum line loose working on the GP.

I tried all sorts of tools and even bought a 12 mm deep socket. Unfortunately, everything I tried ended up almost rounding off the glow plug. One of the glow plugs was wet. The other two looked okay with typical light soot. I also change the fuel filter today. After changing the 3 plugs and the fuel filter I decided to take it for a test drive around the neighborhood. It ran fine. I still think the linkage is worn or loose. It doesn’t have much power. But, when I returned home, it would not shut off. I even tried the stop lever which seemed to sort of bog it down but it kept running. The only thing I could think to do was dump the clutch and make it stall. That worked. So, is this all an indication that the linkage is messed up since it wouldn’t shut off even with the stop lever? Or did I knock some vacuum line loose working on the GP. Any ideas how to get the last glow plug out? There isn’t much room to maneuver and it is close to rounded off. Donald H.

It also had the SS detail package with factory gauge package. Bought it when I was in the Navy in 1972. It had been wrenched at some point. Only sold it for about 2500. Would be worth a lot more now, if only I new. Replaced it with Mazda RX-3 wagon, because I was fly radio control gliders, which was kind of hard to transport in two door coup. See link below.

Re: [MBZ] OT rainy afternoon serendipity with old tech
They’re not unless you’ve got the packaging. I did have a 10GB scroll shell model with all the trimmings a few years ago the I offloaded. I think I got like $300 for it. Nothing like the profit I made on the Lego Super Bowl advertisement set I sold a few years ago. Some guy made a Lego set of the infamous Super Bowl commercial with the hammer throwing girl for a limited edition, like 200-300 sets for $100/pop, I think. I bought one, never opened it, sat on it for a few years then sold it or $800. Apple fanboys.

Re: [MBZ] OT: Doomsday in MA
I’m in Flsgstaff, AZ this week helping youngest son get moved. They just had a huge snowfall (for them) and it’s quite messy. Raining and 50s on Monday, so a lot of it is melting. Nice to see no salt used, just a lot of crushed rock put down for traction. Real fine stuff. Makes the roads all crunchy when the snow and ice melts. -D > On Feb 1, 2021, at 11:27 AM, Dwight Giles via Mercedes > wrote: > > Our forecast here 3-3" but there will be rains here so could be really > messy, > Dwight E.

Re: [MBZ] More on old iPods and car electronics
I use a cassette adapter that’s rechargeable that does Bluetooth. Amazingly, it sounds better that the auxiliary input that’s on the radio in my S210 wagon. I don’t know why. It was under $20 and will last a couple of weeks on a single charge. The only negative is having to charge it. -D > On Feb 1, 2021, at 8:52 PM, Allan Streib via Mercedes > wrote: > > You can get a Bluetooth (or Aux) to FM adapter so that you can tune the > car radio to an unused frequency and play music from the device.
