Didn't we see that a month or two back? It's good that he's going to sell
it instead of trashing it as he planned.

If you switch the alternator pulley to the freewheel version, it will not
jiggle the spring to death at idle. But springs are pretty cheap.

I got chewed out for filling a can in my trunk when it was raining and the
concrete was wet and oily.
So I held it in one hand while I worked the pump with the other hand.
And 30 years ago I pulled out a kero can at the diesel pump and the guy told me
the kero pump was in back.

The engine shutoff solenoid is a wear item that always needs to be replaced
- eventually - and can fail intermittently, as others have noted.

I have an intermittent shutoff issue and would like get familiar with it before
I start pulling and plugging lines. I’ve already plugged off the door locking

I saw an ad locally for an '86 190D on Saturday. The photos looked good.
The body looked to be intact and the interior looked more than decent.
Asking price was $750.
The catch was that it had 746,000 K on it. The ad said it ran and drove
fine. Someone must have thought it worthwhile as the ad

Yeah, the one time I made that mistake it was at a BP station. I looked it

Fascinating story - shipped back to Europe and then completely restored.
Too bad they didn't change the color to ABB (anything but brown). Despite
lack of sunroof and the OEM rear axle compensator (which really makes a
difference) bidding is already in the $60s.

I have never had one fail in the last decade or more. The first crappy ones
they used to have I had a few of those fail.

I have purchased one HF ratchet, a stubby 3/8” drive that was one of their
“high end” or more expensive models. It lasted maybe six months, used possibly
10-12 times, none of which stressed it significantly, it was used to spin off
fasteners in areas with limited space, like the top bolt on moto
I put Mobil 1 wheel bearing grease, the pink stuff, into one. Worked
surprisingly well. The teeth on that one we're good, it just didn't ratchet. I

HF wrenches are great, better fit and finish than Craftsman for half the money.
When I did the brakes on the Jetta a few weeks ago I bought my first HF
ratchet. Flex head, fine tooth. It works well and didn't break with a 3'
cheater on it. Time will tell how it lasts but for $9 I'm pleased.
