understand this concept that bigger is better in a crash. My sister
hit a car that failed to stop at an intersection with her Metro. She
was cruising at 55 mph. The car was of course totaled, but she was

Would you have any pictures or details of your heater? I want to make a

Hello,
As an extra note with the ranger. I have a 1987 with 310, 000 km
shooting for 400, 000 km +
and the most oil I use is 500 ml every 5, 000 km. The engine misses a
little on idle, but works great otherwise.
I just need a new box. :)
Just a note.

I am getting ready to convert my '90 VW to run on SVO. I have a few
