Engine Characteristics

Post by myglaren »

I've just been reading this thread on the Straight Dope and thought some of you here would be interested.
It's in American but Google Translate should help.

It's a worry when you've been on the internet talking cars for so long, you recognise a couple of the "voices". :shock:

I'm not 100% sure about "Rick" as I know of two who'd qualify knowledge-wise. Machine Elf is almost certainly off Speedtalk and possibly on BITOG as well. Not sure he uses the same name though. Between those two forums mentioned and HAMB, you can pretty much page anyone worth talking to, if you've a genuine engine issue that's baffling.

Rick and GaryT are an invaluable resource on The Dope. Rick primarily for Volvos.
Very amusing and knowledgeable both.
Much like Sir James here :)
