    Poor Dog, Poor Car

    Sorry to hear you had a Road Kill. ALWAYS carry an dependable flashlight (& know where it is) in every vehicle. I am surprised you didn't smell the anti freeze when you got out. Glad you are all safe. Sounds like you have an expensive replacement in order. TJ

    What Else Can I Do To My FJR?

    Sorry to hear TWN that you got the shift pattern mixed up with the firing order. Glad the Medical conditions in hand. If your not in harms way after crashing just relax. Do a connection to connection check out before jumping up. Good Luck! TJ
