      RW> MH> 2 more years. If that gasket needs to be replaced, that is a pain!       RW> MH> You have to drop the sub-frame!       RW>        RW> I've seen that done in the late model Malibus. It's not that bad of a       RW> job.              There must be a trick to it, then. When I had the transmission rebuilt, they       had to drop the sub-frame to lower it out. I'll find out this Thursday when       it will be getting the oil pan leak fixed.               I just checked it today, and it is still leaking - but very slight. Not even       enough to drip on the ground, just messing up the oil pan.              RW> Whatever the owner's manual tells you to use...              I didn't realize it, but my car calls for 5w-30. I have always been using       10w-30 - not that it is a big deal. I just never realized it called for 5w-30.              RW> It gets to 100 here for a few hours each day, usually late in the       RW> afternoon. The same for New Mexico, Arizona and California and they're 5       RW> or 6 degrees further north latitude than we are.              I'm glad we don't see 100 degrees very often here in MD. With out humidity,       that gets really ugly.               I rode the bike home from work a few years ago on day when it was near 100       degrees with high humidity. Not fun.               Before I left work, I put wet paper towels on my head under my helmet to try       and minimize the heat on my head. On the highways, the temp was up in the 120       range.               Finally got to ride it to work this past Friday. It was 48 degrees in the       morning, but in the 70s when I rode home.               - Mark              --- WWIVToss v.1.50         * Origin: http://www.weather-station.org * Bel Air, MD -USA (1:261/1304.0)    |
