    Oh, wow. Awesome to see this. Used to watch you on WLEX. Spent 10 years in TV myself (in Birmingham, Ala.). Now out of the biz and dove into Benz ownership. Looking to replace my mono valve on my 126 diesel soon and thinking about the Klima Kit system.

    This is the kind of assistant/apprentice you need for changing the light bulbs on a Smart car, too. Small hands. Btw, the concept of child labor content has been pioneered by Mr. Derek aka Vice Grip, afaik. And incidentally, the Smart car is a (new era) Mercedes product as well, overpriced, overengineered and quite unreliable.
    Plumber's cleavage is a frequent phenomenon in the UA-cam car wrenching world, yet I do not actually recall if you were guilty of it too at some point. Maybe I just don't want to recall it.
    We liked your attempt at self-praise a lot, sounded very familiar. And a big thank you for evoking fond memories of my W126s. I had two of them when they were new-ish. Back then, loose women wanted to ride with you if you owned one. I guess it doesn't work like this anymore nowadays? Are there any loose women in the Midwest, anyway?

    I have a 2001 w210. I never thought about it having that monovalve. I'll have to check. My heat is a little inconsistent.
    Funny that mercedes uses basically what is a solenoid. My Volvo had a vacuum operated "heater control valve", which I had to replace at one time. Much easier to get to.
    I also recently changed my grill and put a stand up emblem on it.
    I think that whole thing about the plumbers butt went right over your grandsons head.
