Yeah I don't know about longevity but the $10 (on sale) angle grinder I bought last year has been flawless. I figured if I got one job done with it, it would be worth what I paid, and it has handled several with no issues so far. On Tue, Jun 21, 2022, at 12:10 AM, dan penoff.com via Mercedes w

[MBZ] Harbor Fright

Last week when I went on a spree at HF to equip my Flagstaff shop with the requisite tools I wanted/needed to maintain my vehicles, I bought one of their random orbit polishers. I’ve got one at the Florida house that has served me well for some years, so I bought the same, possibly nicer/upgrade

I would think the 2007 CDI Bluetec would get close to or over 40 MPG, IF it had the DPF removed and was tuned for OFF ROAD USE ONLY. I would guess those Regen cycles kill mileage. Rick From: mercedes@okiebenz.com Sent: June 20, 2022 10:05 AM To: mercedes@okiebenz.com; davesl...@okiebenz.com Re

IIRC, a 2.2 5-speed manual in tip-top condition should turn in around 42MPG, best-case conditions. Our 2.5 does considerably worse. There are some fuel leaks, and I believe the timing is not optimal. It's also got the wrong rear end ratio. I think we've been getting something like 35MPG, best-c
