Re: I've got a benign cyst in my brain...

Is the parking lot at the hospital big enough for all of us ? We're with you, one way or the other !

Remember when...?

( ok technically I guess it still is, but who uses an antenna, and do they really work ) Cable TV was commercial free ( remember that was the whole point in paying for it ) Home cooking was the norm ( fast crap didn't exi...

Therefore the flexplate is still 130 miles away at the machine shop :x

Re: New Volvo 850 Purchase!

Yes they take Dextron.
Did you check the trans doing the multi-shift etc process ? You can't just pull the stick and check like others.
