Yeah, cool! The guys I was with when I spotted it couldn't believe that I'd actually found someone who knows the owner! But I'd better remember to be careful about expressing negative opinions in fut

Steve, the foams will disintegrate gradually, and, as with everything gradual, you will not notice (e.g. the way shock absorbers go gradually - you never notice until they start spewing fluid out). T

Avi, overdrive is not supposed to be enabled in 2nd gear at all - not only is it not designed to take the high torque of lower gears, but I believe that there isn't enough oil pressure in the gearbox
