[diesel_mercedes] Fuel Economy Check '82 240D Slushbox Tanyy

 

340 miles , Starton added (about 8 oz.) and the AC run pretty much constantly .

One 100 + mile trip with four people in the car , all freeway except for on and off .

29.9 MPG .

The Hirshmann antenna shaft Tom gave me (bought) back when I first bought this car , seized

~ I'm going to remove it and try to polish then grease , maybe use silicone grease ? .


If I can find my can of it , I'll use Lubriplate dustless gun grease .


I love this poor old worn out thing .


I shampooed the seats , drop in carpets and door cards , this made the side runner carpets look nasty so now I want to remove all the seats and drop in carpets , shampoo the side runner carpets and painted floors and wash the original head liner too .


At the same time maybe I'll replace all the shirt rubber vacuum hose bits in the central locking as there's a leak : unless it's cold out , the vacuum bleeds away in a matter of minuets , this normally indicates old & stiff rubber hose connections , they're every where throughout the entire car , inside the doors , the trunk and so on  .
