I've watched the recent messages on this subject with great interest (and
learned more about battery polarity than I ever imagined I needed to know).
I have a suspension question, too.

When my '70 Plus 8 is cold - that is, hasn't been driven in a few days - I
have to hold my speed down, especially when cornering. If the road has any
sort of bumpiness at all, the left front wheel will start bouncing, with
increasing amplitude, until I haul the speed down. After the car warms up -
say 10 miles or so - it isn't so skittish, but I can still feel a slight
tendency for that wheel to bounce. Lube doesn't seem to play a part. Both
sides get oil freely and it doesn't seem to matter whether I've given it a
shot or not. The damper blade is intact and secure.
