Well, sometimes there's no precaution against bad instructions. <g> How
many instruction manuals have you seen with the advisory, "Do not trust
anything we say here. If you do trust us, proceed at your own risk." <g>
Anyway, when I get a few spare moments at work, I'll collect a few
manuals and send them out.

Ah, those one often can't avoid when working on the car. So, you'll have
just enough time to contemplate how much care you'll now have to take to
avoid dinging the new paint and body work. <g>
