Yesterday, I did the easy monovalve repair.

  If you have heating issues, check out the monovalve; it's probably torn.

While we're heading up north again, this year I'm not taking the MB, as
the front end seems funky, so I need to get it checked out before taking
it out on a long trip. Tires are getting worn too.

Hey,

I've got Heat again.

Good morning ! .

We saddled up the 1984 European Spec. 300TD , managed somehow to fit _six_ people and their luggage all inside the car and headed out .

Traffic was O.K. , heavy in points but moved right along for the most part .

The car had plenty of power even fully loaded , I kept it a little bit over 60 MPH , passing mostly only Big Rigs now and then .

We stopped only twice and made it into Las Vegas on the tank fill I'd put in Thursday 12/17 , getting 25.7 MPG

I'd run it to the low fuel light on because the previous fillup showed some crud in the clear plastic intake screen :Inline image
This photo was taken in the filling station _after_ I blew it out .

I had brought a spare one and changed it at the pump island thanx to the nice Lady who loaned me a pair of screwdrivers .

The preivious tank full returned 26 MPG so it appears I'm getting the same mileage fully loaded with six passengers on the open road as I do empty in town .

No fuel additives used .

Heater works fine , didn't use any engine oil , etc. etc. .

I could have made this trip @ 100 + MPH but Shirley doesn't like anything over 60 .

A door check decided to begin sticking badly , I almost couldn't get the front Passenger door closed last night so I bought some aerosol white lithium grease to shoot in there to - day and when Tom arrives later to - day we'll go hunting for another one and install it , is a simple job , he carries tools and we're here for a week so it'll keep me busy =8-) .

-Nate
