Are the "anti-freeze" compounds you mentioned just anti-freeze, or the more modern anti-freeze/coolants? As for that 'rolling Gernoble' crack. Interceptor overheating is grossly overstated. True, th

In one of those delicious ironies, I had to jump start my Grand Cherokee with my Interceptor today (I'm sure I could hear the Jensen snickering). While I was doing so, I pondered the way batteries ju

I tried to stay out of this one, but I too am on a number of lists and I think the assessment of the MG list was bullshit. The main difference between this list and the others is the level of humor.
