My car has a new motor, it initally ran like a top then I had to mess with it and it has basically ran like crap all summer, I could not figure out what was wrong, yesterday I drove it over to a friends house and visited for an hour or so, I started driving it home and it ran like a top, it has never run this good, I have no idea what happened, but I'm not complaining. The only thing I did was take off like a bat out of hell, WOT thru three gears???

btw, as for your sig quote... I've got some good news for you. You're already doing both. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) no need to decide.

Trust me I have already thought about it running it'd best before it blows, I keep listening for any noise that is not quite right.

The air temp has not really changed, this morning is the coldest day this season and it ran fine.

That quote is from a Chevelle song, it was my mantra while going thru my divorce, I guess it is kind of OBE since I have remairried! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I was thinking Shawshank Redemption, but that one's worded slightly different I guess. Something like "get busy living or get busy dying". Pretty sure the Chevelles were first though. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
