Dude, you need to post up some info on your car, yourself, and how you heard about our little drinking club.

You obviously know yourself some tech. I'm just glad we've got a new member who doesn't get scared off immediately, or turn out to be some punk kid. Razz

I'll put in here too and welcome you to the site. It's nice to have another tech person on here willing to help people. You also seem to have some patience which it seems like i'm getting short of lately. After you've been here a few years it seems like you're answering the same questions over and over.. but isnt really fair to the new guys not to help. That and sometimes a new perspective is all a weird problem needs.

Anyway, glad to have you onboard and helping!

Welcome to the CC, and better yet, welcome to the old farts section of the crew Very Happy

From what you have mentioned as mods you have some low hanging fruit to tune out.

What branch of the military were you in and where are you from?
