something breaks?

Uh, yeah, Darrell...good idea. Kinda like back around 1967, when my dad used
the excuse of a blown muffler covering the noise of the disintegrating rear
wheel bearing on the Herald; that cost a bit. In fairness, the Herald didn't
have a radio, so he couldn't mask sounds that way. Besides, he hated Top 40
music! :-)
Crazy as it sounds, don't discount a bad front wheel bearing as a vaguely
possible contributor. Happened to me on the Herald sedan a couple years ago!

Triumph Herald engine with wings.
