I have been chewed out by my good friends for being so stupid and
wasting good engines time after time. If not the engine, then the Fuel
injection computer.
I wait till the last minute then blast off on a trip without test running.
As a shop owner, I say; Do as I say, not as I do.................
Jim, our Cad has lot of trick stuff so it will live a long life and
work efficiently. Only problem is that it cannot take the overheating
and preignition that the driver makes it do since he will not replace
the fan clutch and reprogram the computer.
I have been running the same Turbo system for 20 years. Turbos have
never been a problem..
