Still runs       perfect. It has 135k on it now. My Monte Carlo just went over 156k.               It would be nice if I could figure out a solution for the 20 second cold start       tapping. Everyone has said not to worry about it. I put sythentic in it and       it has helped alittle, but still does it for under a minute on those cold       mornings.               - Mark              --- WWIVToss v.1.50         * Origin: http://www.weather-station.org * Bel Air, MD -USA (1:261/1304.0)    |
