Yup. little pigmy spears

Yup, pretty much.

So, my mom decided it was finally time to get rid of her old MB 240D that's been in storage for 4 years so I told her I'd get it running and handle it for her.
I was kinda dreading this......check the battery....it's dead, no surprise.....doesn't even have continuity.....AAP insisted on trying to charge it....it BTFU. Got a new one, threw it in, turned the key to let the glow plugs warm....took 10 seconds at most.....barely tapped the key to start and it lit right up......those old things really are bullet proof.....gonna change the oil and coolant tomorrow.

Joe, those things are gutless as all get out but they are straight up tanks

That produce some really explosive gasses.

and smelly pee

That is what my wife says about asparagus. I have the genetics that can't smell that effect. No big loss from what I hear.

I can't stand to eat aspergas so I don't have the problem but Beth loves it so I have the problem

There was a guy who made a conversion kit to drop the 240d motor into Series Rovers....slightly higher top speed and way more torque....I was gonna cannibalize it for that, but the dude dropped off grid last year and it's just not worth it if I have to have a shop custom fab the adapters.

That would work

Mrs Carrera used to drive a 240 D as her DD. She had to get on one highway going to and from home. If she could see a car coming she would not pull out. It was a very slow car.

Definitely slow.

I broke out into hysterical laughter when it lit up....I was expecting SOMETHING to be wrong....clogged fuel line, dead glow plugs.....something......

Mercedes has always built the best small diesels in the world. Bar none

It's HUGE!

Hehehehe...I've got some girls with dogs photos....wanna see 'em? Hehehehe

That young lass probably wouldn't like you commenting on the size her putty tat. ;)

Konichiwa B1tch3s.

no i did not send him asparagus , asked Rick to help me get something i couldn't get myself due to discrimination of Europeans :P.. But when it came to paying for the object, the rotten bastard wouldn't let me.

I figured sending boolits is the right thing to do, but i ran into more Euro discrimination.
Luckily i have other friends in the US that helped me show Rick that you can't not let me pay for my stuff like that, it's one thing to help a brother out shipping something, but at least let him pay for what he needs shipped.
So i asked another Pelican to send Rick a box of loosely packed boolits, the sort they tried to ban. I figured, if they want to ban em, then Rick will probably like to have it :D


Good Shooting Rick!

PS, i really should have gotten you the Corrosive primed steel case P+++ Russian Tula crap to ruin your barrel with :D

Holy crap!
Stijn!





Dude, I love Tula/Wolf......most of the 10k or so through my AR have been Tula/Wolf and the rifling is still beautiful and she still holds solid groups.

10 K semi auto is nothing for an AR.

It shouldn't be....but there's a bunch of garbage out there these days.
