each car has a song that it sings. there is a pitch, a tone, a level. you know it if you listen. if this "song" changes, something has happened. INVESTIGATE.

your car has a feel, a grove. you learn how it pulls thru the gears. you know how much gas pedal it takes to cruise. if it changes, INVESTIGATE!

often times it is something simple or cheap to fix. if left unchecked it can turn into disaster.

STOP!!! DONT KEEP DRIVING, PLEASE. its not going to fix its self. cars do not heal as human flesh can.

if your car starts to lose power, STOP. it's telling you something

260 deg oil is bad

400 deg heads are bad

I hate seeing htese cars come into my shop.

stop. your car is screaming "daddy, please dont hurt me, I'm sick. help me daddy, help"

dont try to make it to the next exit, stop.
