That's what he said, except that it was specifically from you.

You're lucky, the images came out blurry

Just FYI for everyone. He's dangerous with that camera. I'm being nice and inviting him over, even before I start cleaning from all this driving of mine, and what does he do? Patrick starts snapping photos of Ol' Turbo's dirty areas... Cruel!

Yup, from what I remember, we both have a W123 and W124 estate, both have cars formerly owned by their grandparents, Star Trek Fans, Lego Fans, and retired gamers.

And both diesels sporting nice wheels

(I was talking about your '85 not the '83

)

Actually one came out nice, until you popped the hood (you did that intentionally didn't you)

Hope we dont have bags in under our eyes lol! We leave from Sacramento at 6pm friday.

I'll check on that fan clutch.
where can one find the instructions and the citric acid? I have searched for that stuff before for another diesel but remember giving up at some stage

O.K. , 100° C is NOT overheating ! .

I'll try to attach the Citric Acid Cooling system cleaning instruction sheet here , it's a Word Document .

8-9am is the time we'll roll out. Lunch at the ranch is good, as before.

Don't forget to charge your camera batteries and bring tripods!

Dieselkraut23 · #**162** 01-09-2009, 05:14 PM

so people should be there by 7am right? because if we live at 8-9 there isnt much time for snap shots.

Dieselkraut23 · #**163** 01-09-2009, 05:33 PM

Also im bringing warning tri-angles, clips, climate control parts and other small things so people bring money because i know others are gonna bring stuff. I can also do a raffle so if you dont have cash you still have a chance for goodies!

vwnate1 · #**164** 01-09-2009, 05:53 PM

I was going to drive my 300CD but the Klima I servo siezed and cooked the amplifier while I was on the road so I'm not keen on driving a car sans heater or fresh air vent ..

Maybe I'll drive the 240D , it's clean anyway .

I've decided not to bring my Euro bumpers as SMWBO may want them on her car....
