244 GL sedan B230f AW70 automatic

1. Tailpipe and rear muffler shot. IPD sells custom turbo muffler package (enlarged diameter) for non-turbos for about $165. IPD claims 2-3 H.P. gain. Std muffler package on e-bay for $99. IPD offering sounds interesting. Any comments for/against IPD offering. I DO NOT want car to sound like one of those rice cars. Is this a DIY job, as far as cat is concerned? Have blow torch.

2. Have Haynes fluid temp. gauge. Want to attach as oil drain plug. Supplied fittings won't cut it. Where can I pick up threaded fitting with correct dia.?

3. Aw come on....had to get you to click on this post somehow.

Went to Walmart sports dept. Took fishing rod/reel to counter. Surprised that saleman was blind. He said his other senses were more acute and to drop the rod/reel onto counter and he could identify by sound. I did. He said that's a Zebco model 202 with a 6 1/2' graphite rod and it's $20.00. AMAZING. He went back to ring it up. The problem was, I stopped at Taco Bell beforehand and gorged myself and now had to blow wind. What the hell, nobody would know it was me and not some other customer. Salesman came back and said that will be $28.50. I said I thought it was $20.00. He said the fishing rod is $20, the duck caller is $5.00 and the stink bait is $3.50.

Kudos as always to Jarrod/Steve Ringlee for maintenance. Kudos to Abe Crombie, Don Foster, Mittenhead, Haroon, Wbainlookalike. Where do these guys get these names??????
