There is only ONE 5% off gas/diesel card now, the Discover Card.
Check it out. Citi, Amex, and Chase have canceled their deal.

Few things, I have obtained a 26 gallon Auxillary tank!
This gives me a 46 gallon tank total.
That gives me a range of 1,150 miles per fill up. (@ 25MPG)
That gives me a range of 1,380 miles per fill up. (@ 30MPG)
A full tank adds ~375 extra pounds. which probably will affect mileage.
@ $3/gallon that's a $138 fill up, @ $2.50 it's $115.
Install would be coming up.

> it's about that time again, for me to get an emissions inspection, this year for sure I'm doing B100, will post results.

Bought a few things for the tranny, will see how it goes. I need to figure out how to correctly install the
Transmission Modulator Valve. Looks like I can not do it myself. :(
--
Will also be replacing AC compressor soon.

want to support the site, and save 5% off on all gas, go
pick a card.

Summer already? So many requests, so many fixes.
so little time. Thanks for all your advice and articles. I
will get around to it sometime. Summer Semester is a killer.
This site is for the owners of the
absolute best cars ever made: the mid-1970's to Mid 1980's Diesel
Mercedes-Benz.
This site has BIG picture based fixes
(in common non-mechanical ENGLISH) mods, hacks product reviews
and more.
Fixes: 49
Mods: 39
Hacks: 4
Other Guides: 5
Total Guides: 97
There are actually 130 pages... I don't know
where the other 30 are. :)
My goal is this to be the #1 Mercedes
Benz W123 Site, to have more guides, and better guides, than
anyone and everyone else combined!
