Ok, so Central Oregon is pretty broad but if you're from around here you know where I live... right Ross?
And, it would be additionally beneficial if folks would put their vehicle in their signature (year and model). Many members refer to their 123 or their 300D, but, without a year listed, the answers can be radically different. Simply putting it in your profile is almost certain to create confusion.

Both Roy and myself recently made this error regarding glow plugs (series type) for an older 300D. The poster did list the year of the vehicle in the body of the message, but, it likely would not have been missed if it was in the signature.
