    Default Don't fail me now!!

    Well tommorrow I make the trek back to Calgary from Edmonton (around 300kms). I made some changes to the ol'girl before I left on this trip for "better gas mileage" but it seems that my changes have made it a little more fun to drive. When I arrived in Edmonton I ended up with a squeek, possibly a water pump or idler pulley? Hopefully it makes it the rest of the way home. Video for the squeek in question,.. Place your wagers!

    I thought it might be the water pump.

    Good to see you had a trouble free trip.

    Will be much better going over it in your workshop ... rather than on the side of the road.
    I hate watching simplicity and reliability being ruined by bureaucracy and technology.
