Julie's Scirocco day

[julie at menloparkrandd.com (julie@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx)]

How about all the MSers toss in to get a package of Clairatin for Dan next year :)
As for the MS. This has happened 3 times so far. I STILL dont know why it happens, but the MAP pressure is 0 so the MS floods the engine. It had me near tears at Cathys. If I had the 16v FI system from the garage, then it would have been pulled for sure.
Whelp, its later, I've had a shower and all cleaned up for the day. Time to do my hair and makeup, then to the garage to get dirty.... Again...
