Snow? Better not, it just hailed here and that was with no warning, no preceding thunder, nada. I've never experienced that. Forecast gets us close to freezing at 35 this weekend, but not bad. From now till Tuesday, Saturday is the only day with a chance for no rain.

Second question. What's the best way to dissolve the carbon from inside the pipe? Brake cleaner? A mild citric acid?

Re: [MBZ] ML320 EGR
From what I have read, carb cleaner. There is a similar pipe on later model M119 engines that is difficult to access, and the consensus there seems to be the use of a wire with something on it to scrub and carb cleaner. Fortunately, the earlier M119 models like mine have the EGR right up front where you can get to it. Dan On Apr 17, 2013, at 11:54 AM, Benz Hogs wrote: Second question.

Get out your Hoppes cleaning kit select an appropriate bore brush, tie a string to one end, put a fishing weight on the other, drop the weight through the tube and pull the brush through, accompanied with carb cleaner.

H, Well I was right about the company, Hoppes! I've never seen that before, But I'll admit that I did think of something similar long ago. Dan Penoff wrote: From what I have read, carb cleaner.
