my god the two of you owe me a pair of undies and a roll of toilet paper. and jeans , and carpet steamer rental, and a shampooing at the petgroomer, as the cat was in my lap at the time i read that. i think i know the guy you speak of, he was portrayed in that movie with Jessica lange and tommy lee jones; he was the farmer / cattle rancher with the red puffy skin with the reaganisque tumors growing all over him that refused to believe lange when she told him that the above ground nuclear test ing done adjacent to his Nevada range was giving him skin cancer; he said the government told him it was a good old fashioned sun/flash burn. report him to the what, epa? that car is a menace to society and anyone near it, or breaths its fumes as it drives by. they should find out where and how he got that oil, and god help anyone else who works on his car for him..what an incredibly irresponsible sob.

Good point.  The ones conducted outside generally get you on the news.

My '83 240D is starting to vanish its brake fluid, examination of the corners and master cylinder show no leakage, I assume that the MC is bypassing internally. Tried t price a new one from Rusty, but 'buy MB parts' seems to be down. Is this a glitch? Rusty still in business?
