I'm still here. Been a member since around 2002, when I inherited my 1978 Chocolate Brown Spider, which I still own.
A while back I posted that I was surprised to find the car fail smog here in California although the catalytic converter on the car only has 4,000 miles on it. After spending about $600, I finally got it to pass, but it required turning the altitude adjuster screw to its extreme position. Seems to have done the trick and the car drives just fine. I guess there's nothing to be worried about having it set that way? Anyway, just wanted to say I'm on the list still. One comment I would make is this, however. I'd find the list more interesting and useful if people would actually reply TO the list more often. It seems that many conversations get quickly taken off-list to private e-mail. That's fine, if it's really private, but otherwise, let us in on it! Colin Talcroft Santa Rosa, CA P.S. I had to miss the Alameda Italian car show this year. Anyone go? How was it?
