So I put the accelerator down through 2 inches of plush floormat and left him in a wake of black, beltching smoke which looked like an oil tanker exploded behind me. I stopped a few miles down the road and planted a tree to make up for my indiscretion
I'll drink to that! Unfortunately, my 240 doesn't belch too much, but that sd sure does. Can't wait to put that in. The '87 is fast enough to keep up with anything. Going too slow is only a problem with the 240 and below.
