[diesel_mercedes] Air Cleaner Fun

 



Max ;

You should live where you like it and so far , it appears you really like Country Living so stay just BE MORE CAREFUL ! .

Those 6 MM studs are the top 1/2 of the rubber air cleaner mounts so just reach into your glove box and take ot the three new ones all wise Diesel M-B Owners carry , replace them all ,if one is old and crappy , the others are right behind it .

DO go through Borrego Springs , I always stay in Stanlund's Resort , it's way past it's 1960 prime but quiet and comfy etc, close to the roundabout in the center of town .

I hope to get to meet you when you're here .

I grew up in the the OC(Orange County), left for good the day I graduated high school, never been back. But now I want to bring my girlfriend to some "fringe" places" like Anza Borego, Death Valley,  the desert around Giant Rock, Plam Springs, Idelwild, ect, ect. And of course Redwood groves in N. Cali., they are  like going to church. I'm glad you guys like it down there, me, I'll pass tru and say Hi. Yesterday right before my 4-wheeler threw me on a 40 degree hill, ( I had to leave it and crawl home), I was changing the air filter on my 240. I could not help but notice a fucking mouse(one of the many hazards of country living) had nested in the air cleaner, and chewed and crapped and pissed, and generally made a mess. So of course I have a spare on the shelve, but it is so messy I wanted to take off the canister(housing) and wash it out. Three 10mm nuts on studs, first two twist off fine, third, I could tell by 40 years of experience it is gonna snap. I probably already went too far, but screwed it back in place, did not snap. What should I do? What can be done if it breaks? I can tell its gonna break if I try and unscrew the nut. I opted to clean out the air filter housing in place, but then went for the ill fated 4-wheeler ride, crashed, had to crawl home, lay on the couch till today. Car will wait, cant drive it anyway now, just getting it ready for spring. I probably should live in Temucala or some warm place like that, maybe a avocado ranch in Escondido, Max
