Required How to change Mercedes AMG M177 oil. In this job 9L or 9.5qt of 5w-40 or 0w-40 (Mobil 1 or MB is “approved”) are utilized. Deep socket or extension socket 8mm 13mm sockets will be needed. I used a 24mm ratcheting spanner but a socket would work here too. […]

My ex inherited a house that a smoker, smoked every day in. This woman was awesome, completely unrelated to my ex but still gave her a house. It needed a lot of work, beyond just painting I ended up learning how to remodel from this house. Her dad was a […]
