Well, I hope so. I didn't experience any poor running conditions - although
it wouldn't start after I shut it down (it did start later after it had
cooled). The engine was hot enough that when we added coolant it boiled when
it hit the engine.

I did stop as soon as I noticed the lights - but I can't say for sure how
long then were blinking (couldn't have been too long).

Well, Like I said I'm still hoping for the best - we'll know better when we
take a look tonight.

We'll check the oil, plugs, and compression ( as someone suggested - may
have been you Jim). So like I said I'll report back once I know more.

I was just curious about that gauge not indicating anything unusual.
