Well it's missing key things - Ie., Troubleshooting, with the engine turning over but not starting, lists half a million things, but doesn't list the Security Reset that Joel mentioned when I had that problem. New values (Ie., Oil Pressure, not just normal operating ranges at 1000RPM, but acceptable ranges at all RPM's/Engine Loads). DexCool replaced with Antifreeze Green, and the new thermostat. NOTHING being listed about the Oil Pressure Sending Unit (stock), or the fact that it goes off at only 5 PSI, which by that point, you're screwed anyway, and that if there is a break in that circuit anywhere or the sensor is junk, well, that little light wont go off anyway. Things like that began to bug me, important things. Not to mention it lists about a billion times that Gasoline is flammable. Really? I thought I put it in the gas tank to add weight to the back - sucker keeps emptying on me every 500 klicks, I think it must have a leak somewhere... anyone got bubblegum?


It's a labour of love though... right? If I wasn't enjoying it, I wouldn't be doing it.
