Re: [diesel_mercedes] Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance

 

When I had  my '87 300TD on ramps, I was able to lie crossways under the car just behind the ramps with my right hand swinging the ratchet and my left hand in the inspection hole feeling for the torque converter plug to come around. This should be easier to do with a 240D since it is only a four cylinder.

I  never read the book, but it influenced my life. Zen and the art of making it tru life. Max  P.S. any tips out there on lining up the drain plug on the torque converter all by oneself? I never get help. I did it once and it was about 100 trips from under the car to turn the motor over and I said never again.

Robert Pirsig, author of counter-culture classic Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, died last month at the age of 88.

Though he never mentioned the make/model of motorcycle he rode in the book, it's well documented that Pirsig loved touring on his Honda CB77 Super Hawk.
