[Vwdiesel] Yellow Dot Pumps & Associated Stuff

[Bryan Belman]

Most important, glad you were not hurt in the accident.

This past Monday I was a near miss by a Buck standing on the side of the road 
and he jumped out in front of the car behind me and he went off the road doing 
70 - 75 MPH.

Scary for sure.
Congrads on that Mercedes purchase, I would not have passed that one up either.

Reply to Mark Shepherd & others. I temporarily gave up working on my Quantum to 
work on other projects: new water pumps on my 1941 Ford, the old ones were 
leaking. Then on my 1947 Hudson Commodore 8. Switched bumpers, reinstalled the 
heater, new fuel pump & more. 

Last Friday while returning from the Sacramento Auto Show (new 2011 cars) a deer 
ran in front of my 2001 Ford Focus totaling it, but fortunately I had 
comprehensive coverage which covers the loss. However I expect to repair the 
Focus with used parts for about $350 or less. Needs new headlights, hood (bonnet 
in UK), grill, & right fender. I found out the insurance proceeds were enough to 
buy a 1983 Mercedes 300SD with only 126,000 miles & looks like a new car inside 
& out. It drives like a new car too. Thank all of you for the Mercedes advice to 
stay away from the 6 cylinder diesels. I haven't given up on the Quantum & will 
return to it once I get some of my other projects done, or when someone shows up 
who will help me fix the starting problem.
