[Re: [Re: coolant line question]]

You are the man Jay. (I can just see your head swelling) I wish I could get my
copy of *TKA to work, it would make life a bit easier, then again I wouldn't
have reason to bug you I guess. I'm getting a new one, $61.84 CDN, which is
about the same as a cup of American coffee. Not really, but less than I
expected. Anyway I should have the (likely wrong part) by tomorrow. SO you
want I should order two of them before yours blows up on you? I know you never
heat that engine up at all, but in the off chance you hit the high revs once
or twice, to steam out the oil......
