Just a small nit guys,  but a couple of you have mentioned the brake "propor=
tioning valve".  No proportioning valve on a Spridget.  The device you're re=
fering to is the PDWA - Pressure Differential Warning  Assembly.  It simply t=
urns on a light to tell you if the pressure is different between your front a=
nd rear brakes, no proportioning.

Linda's car does not have one, so ignore all of this Linda.   :-)
