Most whining I hear from 4 cyl Fords generally comes from their
owners:)

Do you like hanging around in the cold? Well, neither does your car.
Your car was trying to get someplace warm and took matters into its
own... "hands", so to speak. We human tend to think automobiles
are simply machines or, at most extensions of various portions of
our anatomy. Cars have feelings too... When was the last time you
spoke kindly to you car? Bought it flowers or took it to a movie
(allright a drive in)? Did you get it a present on Henry Ford's
Birthday? Your vehicle was trying to tell you something and...
You better pay attention... Some day you may want to stop in a
hurry...
Thank you Dr. Science.....
