Man 'o man, can I ever associate with all the comments on this one. I love fixing things, even those things not worthy of being fixed. BUT, I sure can enjoy throwing out something and getting a new one immediately. For me, I think it mostly depends on whether I want the thing to work RIGHT NOW, or if it has intrinsic valve beyond its worth, either case, I will fix it! Otherwise, it could end up so far down on the list of "things to do", that I may be happier deep sixing it, just so I don't have to trip over the SOB every time I turn around...

Guess if all us here at peachparts didn't suffer a common affliction of wanting to fix things, we wouldn't own these old cars... Oops, this is OD, not diesel discussion....nevermind
