worse, my sliding door handle was BenT!  I've since installed load D's, a
Digitool, and H4's. Everything is much more clear now.  The FLAPS helped me
with my squealing brakes, new OE (OEM?) pads did wonders!  I'm glad this POS
didn't have ABS!  Now my MPG is much better, and the DOT isn't bothering me
either.  I can drive about 70 MPH @ 3500 RPM, but remember, YMMV.  I hope
this cleared everything up. >>

Matt F? Shouldn't that be F Matt. Is your last name Flour? Flor? Flower?

Anyway, 70mph at 3500 rpm seems a bit optimistic. Do you have 13" Austin Mini
Cooper wheels on that thing or what? I know you said YMMV. but that seems to
be way out there for a stock motor. What year is your Princess of Soul (POS)?

BenT

ps:
Were you saying that your sliding door handle was "perfected"?
