Thanks, Jim!

Yeah... I've decided this is really the 240 from hell. I love the car, but it seems to love me doing stuff to it. On the plus side, it's been a great excuse for buying tools, on the down side I've had to buy a lot of tools. :)

What gets me is that the car got a new clutch right before I bought it 20k miles ago. Who ever did it did about as crappy a job as imaginable, in that they broke the old crank sensor and lost the exhaust pipe bracket. Of course they didn't replace any of the other bits that one should do while in there.

I think I'm willing to give the labor a try, so no "financial" labor costs, still I'll do everything imaginable while in there. As much as I'd like to save a few bucks by only doing what's truly necessary, doing big jobs on my back is one of my least favorite pursuits! :)

Oh, BTW, I haven't forgot about those 240 parts.... I'll get PayPal to you maybe tonight...
