I took my car to Brakemasters in a pinch. I needed new front pads and rotors and figured they could handle the job. The installed the new rotors and pads OK, but they quickly warped as I was initially sold sub-par parts, especially for the heavy, 3800lb Mercedes 300sdl. I was able to get a complimentary upgrade to premium pads and rotors. They also said they would replace any bad "hardware" for free. That went well. There was a night and day difference in my braking with the upgraded pads and rotors.
The next week I was finally getting my suspension worked on by local Mercedes Diesel expert Garrett. As he was removing the wheels and caliper for some suspension work, he noticed the following nominal errors:
-Wheels not spinning freely as locking nut was overtorqued
-ABS sensors covered in grease
And the mistake that put him and I over the top was they used the wrong bolts to hold the caliper on the spin





I often peruse Craigslist, looking for the occasional post for WVO. The other day, I caught a post from a place nearby that had 14 cubies of non-hydrogenated oil needing pickup. I called up right away and was excited that the oil was still available. "Will it fit in your car?...I'll make it fit!!" He wanted .50/gallon which is fair for quality oil in the cubie. The restaurant produces about 4 cubies a week, plenty for me. I showed up on time, handed him a card and told him I wanted to be a regular pickup. He said I could do that, or I will be the first person he calls. I left feeling a bit, insecure about my new source. It is a 40 minute drive from my house, so I will feel out the need/want to lock it down over the next few weeks. I haven't done a contract before, but this source may be worth locking down...that is if the restaurant owner is willing. See a sample contract 









You asked, so we designed and built a replacement for the faulty Fass and under-performing BFT Scorpion pumps. The latest results suggest we have worked out the kinks and successfully designed a way to integrate our superior WVO pump into a Vegistroke and Ramstroke system. Yes folks, we've had success on the Ramstroke as well. There is a discussion in our
