Junkyard Dog Registered: 11/23/01 Posts: 20041 Loc: Eagle Point, Oregon	Years ago a VCCA member was asking the VCCA Technical Advisor for his year of car about what type of spark plugs to use in his vehicle. And, I will never forget the TA's reply because it is a total classic. His answer was: "If it will screw in it will work!" $;\)$ _________________________ The Mangy Old Mutt "If It's Not Junk.....It's Not Treasure!"

42bill Registered: 09/19/03 Posts: 4748 Loc: Portland, OR	Oh man, I just LOVE this one..... K.I.S.S. Keep It Simple Stupid. We hear over and over in here that after replacing / re-doing all the 'hard things' that it was just a 'simple, little thing' that caused the 'problem.' And, ain't it amazing, we've ALL done it....... Bill. _________________________ www.rdgsons.com/vcca/toyz.jpg
