Re: [diesel_mercedes] Charging Lamp & Rate

 

Changing the alternater on my 300D took me about 3.5 hrs., its a pain, I can do my 84 Toyota in about 30 mins and that includes 5 mins figuring out how to snake it past the manifold.

Re: [diesel_mercedes] Automotive Battery Life

 

There also is the reserve capacity. I've noticed sales people selling
CCA's. Some of them have the capability of putting out the amperage,
but don't have the reserve to keep delivering it. Sometimes you can't
find the reserve rating on the battery. It is usually listed on marine
deep cycle batteries. The best way I know is:

If you pulled out a large battery and put in a small one, you have lost
reserve power. But some manufacturers are recognizing that, and adding
plastic fillers to make the batteries the same size. You can tell this
by weighing the batteries. The old large one is mostly lead. The one
with less reserve will have more plastic (lighter).

It was a bad one Max , not far from my house and closer yet to my Son's house .

Smoke in the air all day long , not contained yet .

The drought is what , 7 years now ? we're in a bad spot , lots of beef ranches are being forced to sell off stock for lack of water to water them with .

Texas is flooding , just a couple years ago they were suffering a severe drought .

How you boys in Sol Cal making out this winter? It's the driest in California history. Same up here, except maybe the second driest. I saw on news last night a fire down there and it looked like the Santanas were blowing, also 88 degrees in LA, wow. Hardly gets that hot in summer here. Max    not plowing or shoveling much snow
