Might as well try it. Don't go the blanking sleeve route, though -- a lot of folks seem to have this kneejerk reaction to blame the thermostat, when if everything else was working right, the thermost

Don't they ask for your mileage when you first apply? Pretty lax if they don't -- you could claim you're insuring a low-miles creampuff when it is a worn-out jalopy... -- Max Heim '66 MGB GHN3L76149

Well, you could carry full coverage with a major insurer like State Farm, at a cost of $400 a year or so. It's not "stated value" but I don't see why you couldn't carry a case for "market value" if y

It isn't really a question of "pouring" it in the damper cover -- if you go that way you can only dribble in an ounce (or less) at a time, while moving the rack back and forth. I don't see how you co
