Talking Welcome ME

Hi all, I wanted to post and introduce myself. My husband directed me to these forums to help out and learn more while we are putting his Benz back together after some engine maintenance. He spent a couple of years reading about his car as his main pasttime, and now we have decided to get rid of my 2014 Honda Accord that was surprisingly disappointing, and have me drive the Benz for a while.

I'll have to admit, I love cars and learning how all these brilliantly designed cars are put together, and it is going to be really nice to drive a car that I helped rebuild, so to speak. So some questions and comments will be coming your way, most likely.

Remember there are no stupid questions only stupid answers

The only stupid question is the one you dont ask

Both borrowed from my tech training days.

Thank you! I saw some quote the other day about asking a question may make you a fool for a minute, but not asking makes you a fool for life, lol

Some of us have the signature information turned off and don't see it.

Is this a civil union or a traditional marriage?

"No stupid questions" sounded like a challenge to me. Either way, welcome.

TD's are the best. Only STD's would have been better.
