Here's a good rule of thumb...If it's something you can't do, don't want to do, or don't trust yourself doing...Always go to Rotary Performance...They're the only business I trust.

I was planning to...I've been sick all week, and I took off of work on Tuesday for it...I was feeling great yesterday, but around 6 or so, it started to kick back in...I decided to stay in instead of risk having to take today off as well.

Thanks, both the ones by Love Field told me special order for the red, so after a bit of searching (online) I found an ORileys that had 1.

BTW I learned quickly about why the coolant sensor was unplugged...

Yeah, don't pay attention to that...I should've unpluged mine, but I haven't yet...As long as you check your coolant every once in a while, you're fine.

Is the sensor "issue" anything like the FD? That being that it's incredibly sensitive, no pun intended. On the FD, the sensor is just below the filler neck. So, if you're low just a hair on coolant, "BUZZ!" From the alarm. However, I'm happy the sensor is where it is... Heaven forbid the coolant get too low and one gets an alarm too late.

Jerry, I'm no where near FW, but wouldn't mind making a little trip out there for a day on the weekend. Maybe we can get interest in a group meeting there sometime?
