I couldn't help but notice that 69 of the 99 topics in the Classic Thread forum were written in 95 or earlier. Only 4 in the last 22 month's and those were all by Eric Shea (thx Eric). Are there no topics left to cover? I've seen a couple that were nominated recently but they ended there.
Do you have any ideas for threads you would like to see? I'll start. How 'bout a thread on "leak down test". I thought I knew but the more I read about it the more I realize that I don't.

I'm sure there's plenty of things to be covered. It just needs to be front of mind with the Admins.

It would be helpful if others weighed in as well. Grab a camera next time you hit the garage gang.

Good start. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon_bump.gif) I agree Eric but the Admins are probably maxed out and I don't know enough about comp's to offer my services. There were at least 2 recent threads on electrical matters that were great. In fact one dealt with what to do after you convert to electric ww squirters and find that your intermittant function is kaput and how to restore it. In fact, I PM'd an unnamed admin earlier this year and mentioned that a particular article be considered for the classic threads. I was told I should bookmark the thread. This tells me that the admin is overworked and under appreciated so I dropped it.
So here goes. Would one of our astute members e.g. the Cap't, Jake, McMark or one of the many, many others write up something on the "correct procedure" (as you know it) to perform a leak down test.
Even better, someone send me a fuse block and I'll do a thread on how to form and make an acrylic (plexiglass) or polycarbonate (safety glass) fuse cover. I'm tired of kickiing out the fuses w/ my #12 shoe and I've been wanting to do this for a while, anyway.
