Let me  start by saying I read the list daily and get a lot out of it.  On
the
few occasions I have sought help, it was there for me.
 
I thought I would share a funny story.  I have a 74 midget that I have put
together from several parts cars.  It by no means is a check book
restoration
but I really have a lot of fun with it.  Over the past year I have
concentrated on getting the body and front end rebuilt.  This has enabled me
to get the car past NH inspection!!
 
The engine is a different story--  It runs but rather rough.  I have to put
in
about 1/2 quart weekly to replace what is lost or leaks out.  I think I
should
have stock in STP (Keeps my oil pressure respectable)
Now for the funny part-- On my way to work last night I was driving along
with
my usual rough and rather powerless power plant, when all of a sudden the
old
girl started to buck, skip and f--t!!  Just as I was certain a phone call
for
the trailer was in order she snapped out of it and is running just like a
new
engine had been installed!!!  I guess sometimes you just need to let it out
in
order to feel better!!
 
Thanks for all of the help and laughs on this list!!
 
Goss
 
74 born again midget!!
