Date: 96-11-01 09:02:21 EST From: RoverNut Ralph, I think you would be surprised at just how much Land Rovers are in England. When I was there last March I stopped by some shops (shoppes????) that sold new and (mostly) used Landies. ALL of them, from Shropshire to Kirkham bitched at how we Yanks get what amouts to be a better deal on them than they do. England has a 17% VAT (value added tax) plus there are all sorts of other taxes and charges that add up to essentially doubling the cost of the vehicle from the time the dealer gets it to the time it drives off of the lot. From a Range Rover to a Series I with a powdered frame. In fact, one of the reasons the 109 was so popular was because as "13 seater (two 5 person benches plus 3 in the front)" or the more popular "12 seater (3 front, 3 back, 6 on the benches)" it qualified as a BUS, therefore moving into a much lower tax bracket. Nevermind that 12 people in TWO Landies is uncomfortable enough. Most people got them home and changed the seating to their liking, counting their change. It was due to this beauracracy that can only be rivaled here in the states that the 109 was considerably cheaper than an 88. I think the big advantage one gets by owning a Landy in the land of tea and sheep is that parts are available and cheaper ~ with more aftermarket choices, and that fixing a Land Rover in East BF Chipping Camden is tantamount to getting the old Ford running at the corner gas and feed store in Lower Hick Ridge Alabama. Also, in the land of Blood Pie one can get a basic 90, pretty much a two seat panel truck that we SeriesIIA drivers consider spartan, whereas US enthusiasts get the deluxe model or nothing in the U S of A. US import/grey market wheeler dealers get the advantage of buying these vehicles without paying VAT, and even with the import taxes, can bring them to the US reasonably. I know of two 110s that live on Nantucket that were brought over in the heyday of the Robb Report era. Both of them came here for less than what ONE legit 110 goes for now with 100k on the odometer. Makes one cry, no? Unfortunately it's tougher to get them in now unless you've got a pal who's in the military and stationed in Europe. My Rear-Admiral uncle's Mercedes cost him $15,000. So sleep easy, my boy, you're in the greatest G*d Da*m country in the world. So go shoot yer gun! Go to McDonalds! Top off that fuel tank! Be Wasteful! You're an AMERICAN!

From: RoverNut@aol.com Date: Fri, 1 Nov 1996 09:25:24 -0500 Subject: parts TerriAnn is right Brit Pacif. is probably , across the board, the most reasonably priced place to get parts. On the rare occasions when they are more expensive than the others, as with the example of my Range Rover bushings being about 10% more expensive than the other sources, it's because BP sold me Old Man Emu, and the other places were selling somthing like Middle-Aged Grumpy Chicken Hawk. Plus, the guys are so NICE and helpful. We Southerners are used to nice, but there must be something in the mineral water in Burbank that makes these guys so easy to deal with. Marty is dude #1 in my book. Even with shipping from CA to NC, BP usually wins the price war. I always call Bruce at DAP too. He's honest, really cool and Jesus does he know Rovers!

It was only $110 and highly recommended by my Brit Car mechanic pals. I hear the Lumenintion works a little better, but doesn't it need adjusting? Or maybe it's tough to get running right at the beginning ~ something to do with the optical set up. The Pertonix deal uses a magnet. Either way, my IIa has never run better or been more reliable, so I would recommend any kind of elecronic ignition but carry your old points in case of failure, and replace your cap and rotor & plugs and wires at the same time. I hear the new ignition has a tendency to burn up borderline components that would be safe with a traditonal set up.

From: "Boehme, Doug" <dboehme@bestinforsg.com> Subject: RE: Boehme Date: Fri, 01 Nov 96 10:07:00 PST Actually, I have a story about stopping to help a stranded Jeep yesterday: I was driving home from work and I saw a not-so-new J**p on the side of the highway, so I decided to stop and see if the occupant needed a lift. Lo and behold, a HOT blond of the female persuasion jumps out. Turns out, that the engine just died on her. Upon closer examination, I discovered that she had run out of gas. (I guess that makes her a TRUE blond - and I can say this because my wife is blond, more on that later in the story.) So, I took her to a gas station, filled up my new Jerry Can with 5L of gas and we headed back to her J**p. After priming her carbatater, I got it started. She was so grateful, that she said she would do ANYTHING to repay me. She grabbed my crotch and I ran away to my 90 mumbling something about being married. I never got my 90 to accelerate so fast in my life as I drove home to my wife. (Of couse, as soon as I got home I had a Guinness or three.)

A few people stepped forward and >volunteered to help bring LROA into the next phase of its life cycle. OK I gotta say something. On many occasions I offered full support from myself and my company to LROA. I even sent a letter to be read at their meeting, when everything was changing. I basically got nowhere due to the fact that I was not able to attend their meeting in California, how National is that?. I also offered services for an Event, but again no takers due to the bit about liability. ECR puts on an Off Road day, we didn't take a year to worry about liability. Just one call to the agent, and a few bucks it was done. Also stepped forward as a regional co-ordinator and got no where with that because I live close to Myles Murphy. Also sent in a story about a winter event put on by Bruce Fowler up here in a great snow storm, etc. Saw nothing. >So, if you're a skeptic, sit back and see what happens.

I'm not trying to slam LROA, I think it could be a great thing, and I hope all Rover clubs continue to run and grow as they should. I'd still like to offer my support and help out with all the clubs I can, but I think some items need to be driven home about not concentratiing on things like corporations, due to fear of everything, politics, etc. Clubs are supposed to be fun right???

I was southbound on McLintock Rd. in Tempe Arizona last night, when a D110 WOOSHED by me on my right, and merged right in front of me (since the right land was ending just in front of me). Before I could even complete my initial thought of "what a yahoo..." I noticed it was a D110. I immediately floored it and managed to catch up to it (109 = 0 to 60 mph in the same day!) then I had my chance to pull right next to him at a light. We exchanged waves, and commenced to check out each others rigs. At the green light, I managed to stay side by side for, oh, about 15 feet, then the power of the V8 rocketed the D110 ahead of me. I had to turn right at the next light, and we parted. I think it had Oregon plates on it, but I didn't have my glasses on or my contacts in. (scary, huh?) It was a US spec '93.

A 10 minute job I thought. (I don't know why I always fall for that old one). The front axle was no problem but the rear Salisbury axle is giving problems. The original breather had no threads at all but was reasonably solid (DPO - must have cross-threaded it I thought). However, the replacement would not fit as the threads made it too large for the hole. Realisation dawns, the DPO must have hammered to old one in, hence no threads. I have checked the serial numbers against my parts catalogue and as far as I can tell the breathers are common to all axles, so it should be the right one. All I can guess is that my axle is a replacement and maybe should have the later tube type breather. Before I send away for one, does anyone know if these used a smaller thread size than the earlier type? and if not, does anyone have any suggestions, I suspect I may have to have the threads in the axle re-cut.

I did not realize snow chains acted as snow shoes for tires? If you enjoy digging drive up over any old snowbank and sit there. Eventually you'll find one you'll sink in:)! (this is sarcasm, light criticism so take it lightly! Part of the danger of snow is that it hides everything under it, you really have no idea if it's hard packed underneath or soft, as in the case of plowed snow with a fresh batch over it, so if it's just you then go thrashing all around or whatever, but if other people are depending on you to come through, (like the doctors and nurses you mentioned you were picking up) please be prudent, not risky. If your truck had sunk in the snowbank you climbed you might have been stuck, delaying the arrival of the people you were trying to help, possibly hindering the care of patients. I say this because in my volunteer work for a local hospital here on L.I, one of my deliveries to the hospital was a doctor needed to deliver somebody else into this world. Some times time is of the essence, or at least an important factor. Snow sucks to get stuck in. Blasting through a drift is fun and looks great, unless it's really a parked car. (I saw someone do this, quite impressive) Driver skill in snowy conditions is the major part of the battle, some of these 4-wheelers around here are of the weekend warrior mentality and are a little too gung-ho for their own good, and the good of other people on the road. Sure driving in snow can be great fun, but go nuts in empty parking lots or big fields you're familiar with (ones that you've seen before the snow fell, snow covered rock+your truck=$$$) I'm not impressed at somebody's rig blasting along the highway at 60mph plus in a blizzard. I'm impressed with their lack of intelligence, and will pull over and wait 'til they are out of sight if I can. More often than not they are the ones spun out and in the ditch across the highway. Imagine spinning out in snow at 60 and contacting a guard rail or going into a ditch, what fun! NOT! By the by, if Guinness is the beverage, Padron is the cigar! Both are dark, full bodied, I'd even say luxuriously strong. I think drinking Guinness reactivates your appendix from vestigial status. Snow in Ottawa? Send some down here!

Virzi <rvirzi@gte.com> 10/31/96 10:22pm >>> I'm thinking of picking up some sort of CB for my truck. . . . I can pick up a RadioShack (don't laugh) portable for $30 used. Does that sound reasonable? I picked up a Maxxon (sp?)hand held unit at Walmart for less than $60 bucks. If you want to use it on hte highway everyday I would get a regular installed unit or at least get an external antannae for the handheld. I got it just for occasional use like you. Mainly just to talk to the others in my group close by or for emergencies. For that purpose, it works well and you can also use it out of the vehicle if need be. My only problem is that, when using the cigar adaptor, i get a whine that varies with engine speed and makes it almost unusable. With batteries it works fine for what it is. Any ideas on the whine?

Please, PLEASE--it's just a joke ;-) SERIOUSLY, I do have a question. My newly purchased '69 IIA SWB has a pair of FWH unlike any I have ever seen. Each hub has two levers that unfold out opposite each other to help rotate the hub into or out of engagement. In addition, there are the remains of a blue and white sticker on one of the hubs. There is no mention of them in the owner's manuals, US supplement, etc. that came with the Rover. Anyone out there familir with these? Thanks David p.s. just my $0.02: my experience with FWH on two other SWB vehicles (non-Rover) has been a noticeable change in the steering; quieter and tighter turning radius with the FWH dis-engaged.

I did not realize snow chains acted as snow shoes for tires? If you enjoy digging drive up over any old snowbank and sit there. Eventually you'll find one you'll sink in:)! (this is sarcasm, light criticism so take it lightly! Part of the danger of snow is that it hides everything under it, you really have no idea if it's hard packed underneath or soft, as in the case of plowed snow with a fresh batch over it, so if it's just you then go thrashing all around or whatever, but if other people are depending on you to come through, (like the doctors and nurses you mentioned you were picking up) please be prudent, not risky. If your truck had sunk in the snowbank you climbed you might have been stuck, delaying the arrival of the people you were trying to help, possibly hindering the care of patients. I say this because in my volunteer work for a local hospital here on L.I, one of my deliveries to the hospital was a doctor needed to deliver somebody else into this world. Some times time is of the essence, or at least an important factor. Snow sucks to get stuck in. Blasting through a drift is fun and looks great, unless it's really a parked car. (I saw someone do this, quite impressive) Driver skill in snowy conditions is the major part of the battle, some of these 4-wheelers around here are of the weekend warrior mentality and are a little too gung-ho for their own good, and the good of other people on the road. Sure driving in snow can be great fun, but go nuts in empty parking lots or big fields you're familiar with (ones that you've seen before the snow fell, snow covered rock+your truck=$$$) I'm not impressed at somebody's rig blasting along the highway at 60mph plus in a blizzard. I'm impressed with their lack of intelligence, and will pull over and wait 'til they are out of sight if I can. More often than not they are the ones spun out and in the ditch across the highway. Imagine spinning out in snow at 60 and contacting a guard rail or going into a ditch, what fun! NOT! By the by, if Guinness is the beverage, Padron is the cigar! Both are dark, full bodied, I'd even say luxuriously strong. I think drinking Guinness reactivates your appendix from vestigial status. Snow in Ottawa? Send some down here!

I did not realize snow chains acted as snow shoes for tires? If you enjoy digging drive up over any old snowbank and sit there. Eventually you'll find one you'll sink in:)! (this is sarcasm, light criticism so take it lightly! Part of the danger of snow is that it hides everything under it, you really have no idea if it's hard packed underneath or soft, as in the case of plowed snow with a fresh batch over it, so if it's just you then go thrashing all around or whatever, but if other people are depending on you to come through, (like the doctors and nurses you mentioned you were picking up) please be prudent, not risky. If your truck had sunk in the snowbank you climbed you might have been stuck, delaying the arrival of the people you were trying to help, possibly hindering the care of patients. I say this because in my volunteer work for a local hospital here on L.I, one of my deliveries to the hospital was a doctor needed to deliver somebody else into this world. Some times time is of the essence, or at least an important factor. Snow sucks to get stuck in. Blasting through a drift is fun and looks great, unless it's really a parked car. (I saw someone do this, quite impressive) Driver skill in snowy conditions is the major part of the battle, some of these 4-wheelers around here are of the weekend warrior mentality and are a little too gung-ho for their own good, and the good of other people on the road. Sure driving in snow can be great fun, but go nuts in empty parking lots or big fields you're familiar with (ones that you've seen before the snow fell, snow covered rock+your truck=$$$) I'm not impressed at somebody's rig blasting along the highway at 60mph plus in a blizzard. I'm impressed with their lack of intelligence, and will pull over and wait 'til they are out of sight if I can. More often than not they are the ones spun out and in the ditch across the highway. Imagine spinning out in snow at 60 and contacting a guard rail or going into a ditch, what fun! NOT! By the by, if Guinness is the beverage, Padron is the cigar! Both are dark, full bodied, I'd even say luxuriously strong. I think drinking Guinness reactivates your appendix from vestigial status. Snow in Ottawa? Send some down here!

There has been quite a bit of discussion on engine replacements and I don't believe they've generated near the heated debate that ~$150 accessory has. Guess I'm a moderate.

I've follwed these postings quite closely, no-one (particularly not me) mentioned "crap" in the same sentence as "Yank". Of the people who responded in support of the point of view that FWH's aren't the alpha and omega, I can find only 2 who are identifiable as being of English origin, again particularly not me! Please lets kill this subject now. And in future lets try a little more tolerance and a little less dogmatism (I for one subscribe to the lists to get other opinions on a subject). And please lets leave the violins at home.

Please, PLEASE--it's just a joke ;-) SERIOUSLY, I do have a question. My newly purchased '69 IIA SWB has a pair of FWH unlike any I have ever seen. Each hub has two levers that unfold out opposite each other to help rotate the hub into or out of engagement. In addition, there are the remains of a blue and white sticker on one of the hubs. There is no mention of them in the owner's manuals, US supplement, etc. that came with the Rover. Anyone out there familir with these? Thanks David p.s. just my $0.02: my experience with FWH on two other SWB vehicles (non-Rover) has been a noticeable change in the steering; quieter and tighter turning radius with the FWH dis-engaged.

I've follwed these postings quite closely, no-one (particularly not me) mentioned "crap" in the same sentence as "Yank". Of the people who responded in support of the point of view that FWH's aren't the alpha and omega, I can find only 2 who are identifiable as being of English origin, again particularly not me! Please lets kill this subject now. And in future lets try a little more tolerance and a little less dogmatism (I for one subscribe to the lists to get other opinions on a subject). And please lets leave the violins at home.

I did not realize snow chains acted as snow shoes for tires? If you enjoy digging drive up over any old snowbank and sit there. Eventually you'll find one you'll sink in:)! (this is sarcasm, light criticism so take it lightly! Part of the danger of snow is that it hides everything under it, you really have no idea if it's hard packed underneath or soft, as in the case of plowed snow with a fresh batch over it, so if it's just you then go thrashing all around or whatever, but if other people are depending on you to come through, (like the doctors and nurses you mentioned you were picking up) please be prudent, not risky. If your truck had sunk in the snowbank you climbed you might have been stuck, delaying the arrival of the people you were trying to help, possibly hindering the care of patients. I say this because in my volunteer work for a local hospital here on L.I, one of my deliveries to the hospital was a doctor needed to deliver somebody else into this world. Some times time is of the essence, or at least an important factor. Snow sucks to get stuck in. Blasting through a drift is fun and looks great, unless it's really a parked car. (I saw someone do this, quite impressive) Driver skill in snowy conditions is the major part of the battle, some of these 4-wheelers around here are of the weekend warrior mentality and are a little too gung-ho for their own good, and the good of other people on the road. Sure driving in snow can be great fun, but go nuts in empty parking lots or big fields you're familiar with (ones that you've seen before the snow fell, snow covered rock+your truck=$$$) I'm not impressed at somebody's rig blasting along the highway at 60mph plus in a blizzard. I'm impressed with their lack of intelligence, and will pull over and wait 'til they are out of sight if I can. More often than not they are the ones spun out and in the ditch across the highway. Imagine spinning out in snow at 60 and contacting a guard rail or going into a ditch, what fun! NOT! By the by, if Guinness is the beverage, Padron is the cigar! Both are dark, full bodied, I'd even say luxuriously strong. I think drinking Guinness reactivates your appendix from vestigial status. Snow in Ottawa? Send some down here!

I've follwed these postings quite closely, no-one (particularly not me) mentioned "crap" in the same sentence as "Yank". Of the people who responded in support of the point of view that FWH's aren't the alpha and omega, I can find only 2 who are identifiable as being of English origin, again particularly not me! Please lets kill this subject now. And in future lets try a little more tolerance and a little less dogmatism (I for one subscribe to the lists to get other opinions on a subject). And please lets leave the violins at home.

I did not realize snow chains acted as snow shoes for tires? If you enjoy digging drive up over any old snowbank and sit there. Eventually you'll find one you'll sink in:)! (this is sarcasm, light criticism so take it lightly! Part of the danger of snow is that it hides everything under it, you really have no idea if it's hard packed underneath or soft, as in the case of plowed snow with a fresh batch over it, so if it's just you then go thrashing all around or whatever, but if other people are depending on you to come through, (like the doctors and nurses you mentioned you were picking up) please be prudent, not risky. If your truck had sunk in the snowbank you climbed you might have been stuck, delaying the arrival of the people you were trying to help, possibly hindering the care of patients. I say this because in my volunteer work for a local hospital here on L.I, one of my deliveries to the hospital was a doctor needed to deliver somebody else into this world. Some times time is of the essence, or at least an important factor. Snow sucks to get stuck in. Blasting through a drift is fun and looks great, unless it's really a parked car. (I saw someone do this, quite impressive) Driver skill in snowy conditions is the major part of the battle, some of these 4-wheelers around here are of the weekend warrior mentality and are a little too gung-ho for their own good, and the good of other people on the road. Sure driving in snow can be great fun, but go nuts in empty parking lots or big fields you're familiar with (ones that you've seen before the snow fell, snow covered rock+your truck=$$$) I'm not impressed at somebody's rig blasting along the highway at 60mph plus in a blizzard. I'm impressed with their lack of intelligence, and will pull over and wait 'til they are out of sight if I can. More often than not they are the ones spun out and in the ditch across the highway. Imagine spinning out in snow at 60 and contacting a guard rail or going into a ditch, what fun! NOT! By the by, if Guinness is the beverage, Padron is the cigar! Both are dark, full bodied, I'd even say luxuriously strong. I think drinking Guinness reactivates your appendix from vestigial status. Snow in Ottawa? Send some down here!

Please, PLEASE--it's just a joke ;-) SERIOUSLY, I do have a question. My newly purchased '69 IIA SWB has a pair of FWH unlike any I have ever seen. Each hub has two levers that unfold out opposite each other to help rotate the hub into or out of engagement. In addition, there are the remains of a blue and white sticker on one of the hubs. There is no mention of them in the owner's manuals, US supplement, etc. that came with the Rover. Anyone out there familir with these? Thanks David p.s. just my $0.02: my experience with FWH on two other SWB vehicles (non-Rover) has been a noticeable change in the steering; quieter and tighter turning radius with the FWH dis-engaged.

I did not realize snow chains acted as snow shoes for tires? If you enjoy digging drive up over any old snowbank and sit there. Eventually you'll find one you'll sink in:)! (this is sarcasm, light criticism so take it lightly! Part of the danger of snow is that it hides everything under it, you really have no idea if it's hard packed underneath or soft, as in the case of plowed snow with a fresh batch over it, so if it's just you then go thrashing all around or whatever, but if other people are depending on you to come through, (like the doctors and nurses you mentioned you were picking up) please be prudent, not risky. If your truck had sunk in the snowbank you climbed you might have been stuck, delaying the arrival of the people you were trying to help, possibly hindering the care of patients. I say this because in my volunteer work for a local hospital here on L.I, one of my deliveries to the hospital was a doctor needed to deliver somebody else into this world. Some times time is of the essence, or at least an important factor. Snow sucks to get stuck in. Blasting through a drift is fun and looks great, unless it's really a parked car. (I saw someone do this, quite impressive) Driver skill in snowy conditions is the major part of the battle, some of these 4-wheelers around here are of the weekend warrior mentality and are a little too gung-ho for their own good, and the good of other people on the road. Sure driving in snow can be great fun, but go nuts in empty parking lots or big fields you're familiar with (ones that you've seen before the snow fell, snow covered rock+your truck=$$$) I'm not impressed at somebody's rig blasting along the highway at 60mph plus in a blizzard. I'm impressed with their lack of intelligence, and will pull over and wait 'til they are out of sight if I can. More often than not they are the ones spun out and in the ditch across the highway. Imagine spinning out in snow at 60 and contacting a guard rail or going into a ditch, what fun! NOT! By the by, if Guinness is the beverage, Padron is the cigar! Both are dark, full bodied, I'd even say luxuriously strong. I think drinking Guinness reactivates your appendix from vestigial status. Snow in Ottawa? Send some down here!

Please, PLEASE--it's just a joke ;-) SERIOUSLY, I do have a question. My newly purchased '69 IIA SWB has a pair of FWH unlike any I have ever seen. Each hub has two levers that unfold out opposite each other to help rotate the hub into or out of engagement. In addition, there are the remains of a blue and white sticker on one of the hubs. There is no mention of them in the owner's manuals, US supplement, etc. that came with the Rover. Anyone out there familir with these? Thanks David p.s. just my $0.02: my experience with FWH on two other SWB vehicles (non-Rover) has been a noticeable change in the steering; quieter and tighter turning radius with the FWH dis-engaged.

I picked up a Maxxon (sp?)hand held unit at Walmart for less than $60 bucks. If you want to use it on hte highway everyday I would get a regular installed unit or at least get an external antannae for the handheld. I got it just for occasional use like you. Mainly just to talk to the others in my group close by or for emergencies. For that purpose, it works well and you can also use it out of the vehicle if need be. My only problem is that, when using the cigar adaptor, i get a whine that varies with engine speed and makes it almost unusable. With batteries it works fine for what it is. Any ideas on the whine?

Well, first of all, there are no "comparables. ;-) As someone who bought a Rover (new) 25 years ago with the express purpose of getting to the ski slopes *no matter what*, I've always considered the success to be based on the pairing of the vehicle's weight to horsepower - or lack of same. First off, brute horsepower causes more problems in ice/snow driving that anything else. (Yahoos is jacked-up mini pickups scare the hell outta me in the snow!) Weight is nicely split between front and rear (60/40??) Tires tend to be tall/narrow 7.50X16's, not the gumbo monster mudders that are absolute dogs in the snow.

Took a 1 qt. garden sprayer with a broken nozzle. Bought a brass hose barb (the $1.95 part) and epoxied it into a cap from an old reservoir. 18" of fuel line connects to the sprayer jug. A half dozen pumps and you've got plenty of pressure to bleed all four wheel cylinders.

I respectfully disagree with your opinion of the LROA. We do have good intentions, and I do have evidence that the LROA organization exists. The Land-Rover Owners' Association (LROA) was incorporated as a Nonprofit Nevada Corporation on June 14, 1996 and is currently in good standing. Please note, the current Board and officers has no apologies to make. The officers are entirely new from a year ago, and is trying to do its best to rescue the LROA. Although we may have inherited much ill will, we feel that it is counterproductive to assail the past leadership and to find fault. Instead, the mission of our volunteers is to build this club into the type of organization that best meets the needs of its membership and to focus on our common desire to enjoy and experience Land Rover ownership, together with the continued social aspects of rally's, expeditions and overland trips. >As a two-time "paid up" member, I feel cheated out of the forty bucks that >netted me one lousy black-and-white magazine that had very little content >and less panache. The LROA collects dues for membership in the organization, we do not sell magazines. At the last Board meeting however, we voted to extend members' dues status to better keep pace with some missed publication of Aluminum Workhorse issues. As to content of the AW, the magazine reflects the submission of materials from the membership. We do not hire writers, artists or photographers. Members and clubs are encouraged to contribute materials and newsletters. If you would like to send us your articles, photos, technical tips, comments, vehicles or parts for sale or wanted, cartoons, artwork or graphic ideas, etc, please address them to: LROA/AW Editor, PO Box 130, Walnut Creek, CA 94597. >Give up, guys.

Things have changed over to a new group. They have been picking up the pieces left over from the old club and trying to re-organize things to make it better.

Should I send it to AW, or to my active local or regional club? Hypothetical question two: An organisation suffers for various reasons and very nearly collapses. (for all purposes to the outside wrld it has collapsed) This organisation during the collapse generates a richly deserved reputation as well as a very healthy bank account. Fresh blood arrives on the scene. Is it fair that they can take the name, the assets, and all the goodwill, yet divorse themselves from the past? Do they bear any responsibility for past actions? If no, yet this is the *same* organisation, is this considered ethical? Hypothetical question three: An organisation claims that it is national. It ignores active regional entities. If these half dozen or so regional entities, with smaller local ones, co-operate in scheduling events, exchange information, would that, more ephemeral, group have a greater claim to being a national entity? I have more if you wish.

I often leave it parked for weeks at a time at Chicago's O'Hare airport while I'm on out-of-town business, sometimes in absolutely abominable cold. I have never had any problem starting. I change the valve cover gasket yearly to a)avoid leaks and b) inspect the camshaft for wear. In 180,000 miles of HARD driving, I have never noticed wear on the camshaft. I have every bit of compression I ever had. There is none, and has never been, any coking in the engine(I'm told since synthetics are purer than conventional oils, they don't have the residual carbon associated with distilled petroleum based oils. Traces of residual carbon make candle flames glow, and are deposited on the inside of your engine by conventional oils when they are heated.) I change the oil evey 6000 miles and change the filter every 3000 miles. The savings in time spent changing oil are worth it to me. When I get MY rover, later this year, I will be converting it to all synthetic fluids.
