Alternator replacement and the right front caliper... while futzin' about in there I found the throttle linkage floppin' around, barely hangin' to the pivot point on the firewall. I drove the car a few days before and thought the turbo had finally gone Tango Uniform. Turns out the poly bushing that the throttle pivots in had turned to dust. Now WHERE on a Saturday afternoon would I find a specialty Benz bit???
Herself has a collection of "stuff". Ribbons, bobbins, beads, old keyboard parts... about anything shiny or remotely intact ends up in her pile of treasures. Well she had some outsized wooden beads... Whacked a quarter-inch off'n two sides, augered out the hole to allow shaft fit, Presto!!! Custom Benz Bits!! Who sez these cars are expensive to maintain?!?! Not after a lifetime of keepin' LBC's runnin' any way possible. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif
