And that is the maximum speed I can have if I go up hill. I also notice that some times the car works fine, it gets good speed but once I start going up hill the speed get down to aprox 60km/h. Once I start driving, it turns off sometimes when I push the brakes or when I use the reverse (automatic). When I start the car it takes aprox 5 seconds or a little more to make the engine run, if I don't accelerate the engine, it will turn off. I replaced the MAF sensor before, because I read the benz forums and they mentioned similar problems but it did'nt work at all. P0335 crankshaft position sensor A circuit malfunction I run my OBD scanner (actron) and it shows two codes:ġ. I started having problems a few months ago, the check engine turned on and the car got all slow and having truble to turn on. Hi, this will be a little difficult to understand probably, because english is not my native language, but here it goes. Could this be a reason for not starting the car even though it cranks.Īny suggestions would be appreciated right now as we are going crazy trying to figure this out We are going to attempt to trickle charge the battery. With battery pack off it shows as 9 and when attempting to crank drops to 7. Ive decided to go ahead and replace both the front and back. Volt reader showed it as 9.3-9.4 with battery back on. While replacing my front brakes on my 05 C230 Kompressor Sport sedan I noticed the beginning wear signs of my front struts failing (the car 73K miles on it so its probably due for them to be replaced). We put a battery booster on the battery and it was still not cranking. Now when trying to crank the car we notices it was loosing juice. We hooked up back the odb2 and all codes and faults were gone except the overhead control which is the sunroof. Still crank no startĪfter doing more research we than ordered and replace the Crankshaft Position Sensor. We than ordered two cam adjuster magnets and replaced them. Ordered new sparks, replaced gaskets, cleaned and check coils that were producing spark. We than removed the valve cover took out the coils and noticed there was oil leaking into the sparks 1, 2 We put odb2 scanner in and read the codes as camshaft and misfire Mechanic and I started to try to figure out what is going on. Have been working on this issue for the last 9 days now.Ĭar started to idle rough and kept shutting off.

Looking back now, I’m not even 100% sure that we were all on the same page as to whether this particular couple I was looking for ever was buried in that particular cemetery, but however the conversation went, they understood who I was asking about and what I was asking to see - but the fact remained the same: We can’t take you to see where they’re buried, because they’re not buried there anymore. So they were here…but they’re not anymore? They responded that they’re not here…anymore. I politely checked out the graves that they showed me (above), and then I asked about Antonio and Benedetta. So having seen how crowded that Italian cemetery was and knowing, well, anything at all about Europe and its population density, I probably should not have been so surprised (which would have lessened the disappointment, though that itself still seems valid) at what happened next. I’m embarrassed to say I don’t even know exactly which cemetery they took us to (why did I not write that down?! for shame, genealogist!), but it wasn’t far so it must have been within the province of Pistoia (where we were & where my ancestors lived).Īnd when we got there, they showed us the graves of the available relatives, one of whom was their mother/grandmother Parigina (or “Genni” for short), who was my great-grandfather Quinto’s baby sister:Ĭarroll Cemetery, Olive Hill, Kentucky, 2004 (photo by the author) So at my request, our relatives took us to the cemetery where our other relatives were buried. And seeing as I didn’t have the slightest clue how to request Italian records (or what to request or where- although come to think of it, that might have been a good or even better thing to ask the relatives while I was there), much less that comparatively very little was online in those days (especially international records), visiting the cemetery seemed like a sound strategy to potentially find a lot of information quickly and easily. My great-grandfather Quinto died and was buried in Ohio, but I had my sights set on his parents, Antonio and Benedetta, neither of whom (as far as I know) ever even visited America. Families are often buried together, as you probably know, and so if you find one, you’ll likely find others, with names and dates to go along with them (and if you’re really lucky, maybe some relationship explanations like “son” or “mother” right on the stone). Having been engaged in genealogical research in the United States for almost 10 years already at the time of that trip, I had always found cemeteries to be a veritable gold mine of information. Mom said she seemed to recall that when I had visited relatives in Italy in 2004 (ten years ago – wow), I asked them to take me to the cemetery but he wasn’t there anymore and she couldn’t remember the rest of the story, so she was calling to ask. The ancestor in question is named Antonio Pasquinelli. She said she was sitting there chatting with two of my Dad’s sisters (aunts on my Italian side of the family), and they had gotten onto the subject of genealogy and were wondering about the father of my great-grandfather Quinto. So one day in early July, Mom called to ask me a genealogy question. the context for the Internet search that brought me to the treasures I found later) as well as the answer I located. I’ll share the exciting results in another post, but first I want to lay out her question (i.e. A couple of months ago, my mother asked me a question that reignited a search into my Italian ancestry that has yielded some exciting results.

There’s a great deal of tension and release, and I think the guitar playing is some of Bernard Sumner’s finest work. Even the bass line is really staccato, but the first note is held, which is crucial. “I think their best song is Transmission. It was just muscle memory from playing it a lot. Ironically, it’s not one of my favourite Joy Division tracks. I went back and realised it was the bass line that I’d learned when I was younger. Michael and Fyfe said it was a brilliant riff but I said I wasn’t sure where it was from. We had eight tracks and Chris Sheldon came to the studio and we were just jamming. TRANSMISSION (single, 1979) “It’s not Isolation! The Isolation cover happened during the writing of Troublegum. Peter Hook has called this his favourite track and I can see why, but it surprisingly hasn’t got much Hooky-style bass playing in it.ġ. It’s unlike many other Joy Division tracks. Before I did this list, I listened to it again and it gave me goosebumps in the first bar. It was so cinematic and devastatingly beautiful. I was going through a few personal things I didn’t know what was going on in my life, where it was going, not sure who my friends were… and here’s a posthumous release by my favourite band in the whole world that I wasn’t expecting. I felt like I couldn’t breathe because I was overcome with the whole track. It’s just two chords over and over again, very minor, very solemn. It was one of those few moments in music where I thought I was going to have a panic attack. It was one of those records where I didn’t buy into the whole post-death thing, but the very first time I heard this was in the living room at my mum and dad’s house. ATMOSPHERE (Substance, 1988) This was released posthumously. Some bands at the time would use a cowbell, but they’d use a synth drum. There’s a disembodiment in the sound and the instruments are all pulling at different places and it gives the sense of someone on the floor having a fit. It’s about Ian Curtis witnessing a girl have an epileptic fit. What’s lovely about the original version, there’s a echo on at the end of Curtis’ lines, which warps the vocal and gives a complete sense of dislocation. It’s also got a Can-like trance-like guitar riff. That’s one of the things I loved about Peter Hook’s playing is that it was quite fearless. My forays up to and past the 12th fret were not appreciated. They were jamming their own stuff and I was told to leave my attentions above the fifth fret at home. I started to play with local bands and remember jamming with a rock band who did covers. It got me into a lot of trouble because it was one of the first ones I’d ever learned. SHE’S LOST CONTROL (Unknown Pleasures, 1979) It’s got an amazing bass line. From Safety To Where has been under-looked but there’s a great deal of worth in peripheral tracks like this.Ĥ. People were used to hearing the Pistols and the Damned, then here’s this band from Manchester with this sparse-sounding song. It has this lilting feel to it and very little guitar, which is brave. It’s got that sense of something around the corner that could be unmanageable. That reminded me of the enigmatic authority of someone like Harold Pinter or Jean-Paul Sartre. There’s this line: ‘Just passing through, ‘til we reach the next stage, but just to where, well it’s all been arranged’. It settles into a hypnotic dub groove and Ian Curtis at this point hadn’t quite found his feet, so there isn’t that introspective pondering he did later on. I know there was an awful lot of dub reggae doing the rounds in 1979, and a lot of punks would listen to it to chill out from their speed-fuelled mayhem. FROM SAFETY TO WHERE (Substance, 1988) This song opens with something like a Joe Lally dub reggae bassline – but this was way before Fugazi.
