    Lost all signal lights hazards still work

    Both turn signals quit working this morning. The hazard lights still work though. I replaced the signal flasher on the fuse box under the dash but it said hazards? I hope it was the right one. Anyone else know of anything to check? Driving with out signal lights is scary.

    Died on the highway

    Was on my way to school and almost made it to my over pass and the truck died. Now it just cranks over and over and over no sputter or anything.

    Working on the pipeline

    I worked lots of pipline during my apprentice years. The gayest part was when the line was in and back filled we had to go back and pick rocks by hand for days.

    Anyone ever try injecting oxygen?

    We tryed it on an old 1992 cavaler we were bagging the snot out of in the field. Under wide open throttle we slowly opend the valve and it would pull hard and rev up for a few seconds then it would kinda explode in the air box and kill the car. I'm sure if we had a regulator it would have...

    Main cap girdle question...

    Does your 141 have squirters? I have a spare 141 with no cracks and has the 12mm outter bolt holes with squirters...... My twin turbo test engine was built off a 929 with lots of ugly cracks. Not to sure how many miles i will get out of it. Maybe the drasticly lowered compression will help ease...
