Had to go on "Vacation" for 3 days. No computer at the shop. You know I should get a computer and Internet hook up for the shop. Never can tell when there might be a Motorgen crisis that you need me for.

Did you have swine flu? Were you quarantined? Or did you mouth off to a customer and get spanked.

And yes, you should get a computer and hookup at the shop. You can get screaming netbooks now for less than $500 and DSL for less than $20 or so a month.

Forced vacation.


So what do you recommend for a computer?

And look what that got you. You have an unknown vibration.

I used a water pump pulley and 5 blade heavy duty flex fan from a FORD truck.


The vibration is still undermined, but I have theories.

A new Grand Sport would fix that straight away.

That would be a great way to get rid of the vibration. The Explorer has a drivetrain vibration that I think is in the trans. I'll see if I can get a Raptor to fix it but I'm not sure my wife will go for it.

Honey, the Protege isn't running quite right. I need a part to fix it. What is it? A DB9.

At least we are keeping it under $60,000.

Good thing you don't have any important GM parts holding that reciprocating assembly together.

Does it vibrate in neutral?
