Jamie, you are probably right, I haven't needed to tear it down and haven't been concerned with how the hamsters turn their little treadmills inside the engine. Around 70mph, the symphony under the hood becomes what I call my "audible cruise control", I know from all the racket that I'm going faster than most highway speed limits here.

Mux-
You're right, love is at the heart of it all.<G> The AE88 is just a sweet little thing, even if it is old, crude, noisy, and underpowered by modern standards. I call it a bantamweight, like the boxing class. Not ultralight, not big, but nimble on its feet and nicely balanced.

"how we can get as much power for as little money as possible" Hmmm...two contradictory goals? Tune it up and leave it be?<G> Here in the US I'd just be happy to find real gasoline, everything in the pumps has been diluted with 10% ethanol. UGH. Serves no purpose at all except making the corn suppliers richer.

Original owner, 1985 Toyota Corolla GT-S in the US of A. Will trade for a Cadillac-Gage V150 or a Ford GT44.
