I guess what i should have said was it took so long to show up
because el nino finally ended, at least the effects for us here in
Canada(west), because, yes, the storms we are having are for sure normal
winter storms. i wouldn't even call them storms here, just weather. What
was abnormal, was for the temperatures to hardly dip below freezing all
winter untill new years day. That is when we stopped feeling the effects of
el nino, and we were back to our cold, harsh, crap temperatures.

One thing is that foam insert in the gas pedal has a large tear in it where
the cable is wearing through.

Can't you just be happy that you don't live here, without rubbing it
in?;)

I think that sounds like the best bet right now. Is it a fairly
simple procedure?
