[Shotimes] Re: Sho cold related flatulance noises

[Eric Keller]

I know it's not the question you asked, but my '90 SHO
has always made the farting noise after a cold soak at
temperatures less than 20F.  At home, it lives inside
an above freezing garage, but at work it gets a nice
cold soak.  No farting in the morning and a definite
farting after work.  Maybe the noise could be best
described as farting through a kazoo? 

It doesn't make me happy that it makes this noise, but
the car seems none the worse for it.  

Now if someone could solve the "stumble when you back
off the throttle in cold", I'd be happy.  It's too
cold to run the codes right now.  

I've definitly turned into a wimp in my old age.  When
I was 20, I worked at Trek bicycle in Wisconsin.  I
rode my bike 10 miles to work, at temperatures down to
-24F.  The second winter I was there, it never got
above 0 for 2 months.  When it hit 20, we all walked
three blocks to the store at break time in our
t-shirts.  They should evacuate that place in early
december each year.

I took that belt off during the Miami/Virginia Tech
game at about 30
degrees, checking for bad pulley bearings, and it
wasn't real fun to
contortion my hand up in there to loosen the
tensioner.  At the current 0 to
5 degrees, I think I'll hold my nose and let it fart!

The Lowrider's noise is obviously not temperature
related and the rest of
our car's noises only happen under 30 degrees.  If
anyone else out 
there is
experiencing a noise similar to what we're trying to
describe, and it's 
not
temperature related, please respond.  Curious if
Marlene is out there; 
does
SnowWind have this noise?
