    Oh... you bastard! I LOVE Wayah road! Try driving it at night on Halloween. It gets kinda spooky out there, but NOBODY is on the road. I pre-drove a Dragon group drive to Highlands one year at night... we were hauling-arse, having to use GPS to set up for the turns. That road induced the 'technicolor yawn' from a passenger (in the car behind me, thank goodness) who had NEVER been car or motion sick before.

    Last Friday, I was driving home early with the flu and got 6 blocks from my home when the AC went out... then 3 blocks from home the battery/charge light came on... then as I pulled into the garage, the coolant tank bubbled over and steam came out the cowel vents. I couldn't even get out of bed until yesterday when I did the quickest belt removal (off in 5 minutes) and turned the outter ring of the crank pulley by hand without turning the crank at all. The crank pulley damper is toast. A new one is on the way from Way.

    That's interesting... very clean and took me 20 seconds to realize what you had done.

    I look forward to end-state pics!
