Joel addressed the following note to me off the list. I'm re-potting it here
for the benefit of anyone else who didn't hear about. I don't have all the
TSB's pertaining to even my most familiar of vehicular friends at my mental
beck and call - the older I get the more stuff has to get cleared out of the
attic to make room for all the NEW old stuff I have to store up there...
Although I have to admit, this is one I don't recall _ever_ hearing about.
Thanks, Joel!
