Hey, Mike -
I can see where you would learn a lot with an engine tear-down. I am limited in both space and time to undertake something like that. I do find that, with each project I do, what I...

Thanks for this information

I don't have this particular problem. But, I am curious to know about how the various systems work. I am going to save what you wrote for future reference, just in case.
Thanks.

I see some names from long ago

When I bought my car, 21 years ago, I originally signed the papers for a 2.8 in the showroom. But, it was a financial stretch for me at the time, so I decided to order a 1.8tqms. I did like the...
