To those of you accusing me of being such a whiner for the past
couple of years, I'd like to admit I was a pain in the a**, but I
wasn't whining in vain, there was something wrong with my car.

I used to say it was like pulling a 7000lb. trailer, but these past
few days I feel like I lost the trailer.

I wasn't whining for nothing but it took me only 15 minutes to fix,
I played with the same things as I did a couple of times before,
except this time it worked.

It used to barely move under 4000k, but now it pulls the same of the
line as it does at 4k.

It pulls exactly as I was expecting, I knew it couldn't be that slow.

I wish one of you would have driven it, you would have agreed 100%.

Finally 0539 is normal.

I managed to pull away from a CRX from a light, then I caught some
traffic and he passed me, I pulled behind him, downshifted in 2nd.,
got on his bumper, he downshifted too, nailed it and once I got
beside him again the road was wide open, I reved it to 7k, shifted
in 3rd., looked at him, he gave me that look like this is all I've
got, then I managed to pull away, by the end of 3rd, I was 2 car
lenght ahead.

Next light I was side by side, he tried off the line, got me for the
first car lenght, till I stopped spinning, he shifted way before I
did, I waited for 7k to shift, by that time I was half a car ahead,
by the time he hit 3rd, I was gone.

I'm sure he knew I didn't have more than 4 Cyl., my exhaust sounds
like a loud rice burner, no V8 note out of that pipe that's for sure.

It's about time I can feel this thing move the way it should.

Easy, easy now, I didn't say I like it, all I said is for the first
time in 2 1/2 years it didn't piss me off.

In order to like it, I would need new tires, a paint job, rebuild
the rear end, a new dash pad.....
Sounds like more than the car is worth?? <G>

You guys crack me up!!!
