[Healeys] Thanks re Saftey gauge

Ron -

I've found with Margaret that if you are very specific about the problems (
i.e. write them down) that she won't let it go out of her shop until it's
perfect.  I had a very difficult BN1 speedo calibration problem and she was
the only shop (sent it to three other shops) that was able to fix it
properly.

I wonder if the problem is she didn't know to look at this issue with your
OD or the calibration?  Usually problems with the OD are hard to notice
because shops don't want to run your OD too much and run up the miles.
