I have some project to finish befor the boss cames back from Europe, but I plan to go up the Baysox Stadium on the 25th and run with the Potomac Porsche club. Need to get up early, o boy.

They allow also other cars, but no Crevette.

Doesn't sound like a Porsche, it sounds like an old redneck truck

Life is too short to put a cheap engine in a Porsche, and drink cheap beer.

Since I drive ein Deutsches Auto,

here's my 5-year phase-in plan that would become known as Autocross (AutoSlalom) "Euro-English".

In the first year, "s" will replace the soft "c". Sertainly, this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard "c" will be dropped in favour of "k". This should klear up konfusion, and keyboards kan have one less letter.

There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome "ph" will be replaced with "f". This will make words like fotograf 20% shorter.

In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expekted to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible.

It will enkourage the removal of double letters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling.

Also, al wil agre that the horibl mes of the silent "e" (Excluding PORSCHE)  in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.

By the 4th yer people wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing "th" with "z" and "w" with "v".

During ze fifz yer, ze unesesary "o" kan be dropd from vords kontaining "ou" and after ziz fifz yer, ve vil hav a reil sensibl riten styl.

Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evrivun vil find it ezi tu understand ech oza. Ze drem of a united urop vil finali kum tru.

Und efter ze fifz yer, ve vil al be speking German like zey vunted in ze forst plas..

Prost

It's interesting what happen when a normally slow driver has the run of the year. Now the Crevette world is under pressure.



I know, I have no chance

I got a Ridgid boroscope, but it's also to large for the plug hole.

When I looked at the pictures when you took the engine apart, I commented that the inline 4 is simple, however, with all the stuff around, it becomes quite complecated. At least I have not to deal with turbos and anti freeze.

Hope this turns out OK.
