            <description><![CDATA[ Guys,<br />
One of the guys in my local triumph club is going to make me a 2&quot;<br />
plate with <br />
three perpendicular holes in it which I can bolt onto the inlet<br />
manifold bolt <br />
holes. This will plate will enable me to drill perpendicular<br />
holes in the head <br />
for the helicoil. Since I'm having to take the inlet<br />
manifold off, I might as <br />
well do all the bolt holes<br />
<br />
Does anyone have the<br />
placement of the bolt locations with respect to each other? <br />
We can use the<br />
inlet manifold as a guide, but the guy is a machinist.<br />
<br />
I don't have bolt in<br />
front of me but is is a 5/16x24 UNF? I need to buy a heli <br />
coil tap.  Also are<br />
there special heli-coli taps for blinds holes, or should I <br />
buy a regular one<br />
and have the tapered part of the thread ground down?<br />
<br />
Thanks, Sujit<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ Happy Labor Day for the American forum members!<br />
<br />
I have a stock MK I cooling system on the Stag. Ie. the radiator, plumbing and inlet manifold are of the early variety. Is it possible, using the existing hardware (manifold etc), to install an aluminum Wizard Cooling radiator (which seems to be for the later higher pressure system)?<br />
<br />
Otherwise I would have to get a MK II manifold and perhaps a presurized overflow bottle.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I thought i might put this question to you guys as you seem to have an abounance of knowlege in most areas and covering most cars.<br />
My colleague has a 1978 Spitfire which has just failed the MOT on the Hazards warning lights not working with ignition on or ignition off.<br />
All indicators work fine.<br />
<br />
Sounds like it could be a relay if so any ideas of its location?<br />
<br />
I must admit i thought hazards were not part of the test.<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ Hi Julian<br />
<br />
Yes, an early rebuild looks in order.  Loose/missing springs are very common,<br />
as is a seized cam.  I sometimes marvel at how the condition of 2 tiny springs<br />
can have such a strong influence on engine performance.<br />
<br />
As Miki describes very exactly, in new condition the cam should be held back<br />
against the stop with the distributor stationary.  Anything else as in my<br />
previous diatribe is wrong, meaning worn or missing springs, worn weight pins.<br />
It is probably a good idea to do some pre-preparation by checking the<br />
distributor is in fact the correct part number (= 8 figure Lucas despatch<br />
number) for your engine and then find somebody who is reconditioning the<br />
spindles, who can supply springs, is the cam bush worn too.........  Beware<br />
inexpert 'reconditioners' who may have used the wrong parts inside your<br />
dizzy.<br />
<br />
This business of the cam being very loose with lots of rotational free<br />
movement means that the ignition can be VERY far advanced at tickover and<br />
lower running speeds when you need acceleration.  Interestingly, 'points' will<br />
largely hold back the cam so that advance is not excessive, but immediately<br />
you put in an electronic ignition rotor with little rotational resistance, the<br />
timing is much more advanced (dangerously so?) as seen on a timing light.<br />
When experiencing 'pinking' in use, most people are savvy enough to rotate the<br />
distributor to retard the static timing - and thus achieve knock-free<br />
operation during acceleration with detriment to correct timing at higher<br />
engine speeds.  But by this time the ignition system is totally compromised<br />
with knock-ons for the engine.<br />
<br />
This is why a full rebuild is in order and will much improve performance and<br />
economy - irrespective of 'points' or electronic ignition.  A classic case of<br />
new obviously working much better than old.<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ While trying to re-torque my inlet manifold bolts, I noticed one of the long<br />
bolts thread is stripped. The other short ones in the area are fine. I do have<br />
a <br />
slight leak.<br />
My question is. Is there a quick short term fix? I'm looking<br />
for something which <br />
will prevent me removing the manifold and inserting a<br />
heli-coli., but enable the <br />
bolt to tighten.<br />
<br />
I'll prefer to wait until the<br />
winter months to heli-coli all the threads.<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ uncle jack has a notchy/sticky throttle in the light-throttle range.  No probs when really on the power, but it shows up when cruising around town.  1973 Stag with standard engine and carbs.<br />
<br />
I have looked over and moved by hand the throttle linkages around the carbs and all seems well.  Not had time to crawl under the dash yet. <br />
<br />
Two possibilties occur to me:<br />
<br />
Pedal setup:  The bushing the pedal rotates on is dry and needs lube.  How does one lube it?<br />
<br />
Cable:  The trottle cable is sticky and needs some lube.  What does one use?  Graphite?  How do you do this?<br />
<br />
Any known characteristics I should be looking for?<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ I did mine a few years ago similar to the way Miki did his.  I made a long<br />
wrench (about 1.5 ft)out of a flat steel bar with holes to pick up the studs.<br />
I put the whole unit in a large vise with the jaws wide open; the vise was<br />
just to keep one half of the unit from turning as I turned the other half with<br />
the wrench with my full weight down on it so it wouldn't fly apart. worked<br />
pretty well.  Assembly went pretty well also.  Has worked very well since.<br />
<br />

<br />
&lt;My brake servo is showing signs of failure: When I depress the brake pedal I<br />
can sometimes hear a hissing sound, from the brake pedal side, which is<br />
accompanied by little or no braking assistance. After 36 years this is maybe<br />
not surprising. I think it is the only bit of the car I have not had apart!<br />
<br />
Has anyone successfully repaired the brake servo? There is a service kit for<br />
it which implies it can be repaired, but there is nothing in the ROM about it.<br />
I have looked on the net and the only description I could find was for<br />
dismantling and old Ford Escort servo. This involved keeping the vaccuum on<br />
the servo whilst separating the two halves to keep the internal spring<br />
compressed and stop it flying apart. Sounds a bit risky!&gt;]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I have a problem with the clutch on my 71 federal spec stag - the pedal has <br />
started to feel &quot;notchy&quot; as I depress and release it. It was ok last year <br />
when I refitted the gearbox. I have replaced the master and slave cylinders <br />
but still have the problem. So I think it must be the bearing carrier <br />
binding on the input shaft. When I put the gearbox back in I greased the <br />
input shaft. Interestingly if the engine is off the clutch is smooth. I have <br />
been searching the archives and have found some discussion relating to gear <br />
box alignment. I have dowel bolts in the top part of the gearbox and note <br />
that LDPART sells a special one for the lower part of the gearbox which is <br />
said to improve alignment. Has anyone had experience with this? Only other <br />
thought is that the grease has dried out and causing it to bind which will <br />
mean a gearbox off job!<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ ISTR the turning circle of the MK1 stag is larger than the Mk2 or something to<br />
that effect. Is the difference due to the steering rack being diifferent or<br />
something on car to limit the travel? If it is the rack, would<br />
anyone know what <br />
components are different if any from Mk1 or Mk2.<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ My brake servo is showing signs of failure: When I depress the brake pedal I can sometimes hear a hissing sound, from the brake pedal side, which is accompanied by little or no braking assistance. After 36 years this is maybe not surprising. I think it is the only bit of the car I have not had apart!<br />
<br />
Has anyone successfully repaired the brake servo? There is a service kit for it which implies it can be repaired, but there is nothing in the ROM about it. I have looked on the net and the only description I could find was for dismantling and old Ford Escort servo. This involved keeping the vaccuum on the servo whilst separating the two halves to keep the internal spring compressed and stop it flying apart. Sounds a bit risky!]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Hi <br />
Has anyone used the Renovo soft top restorer, just wondered what the results were like for colour and waterproofing ability.<br />
<br />
Also what size would do 1 hood.<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ Both of my Stags have wire wheels and I am getting a set of alloy ones that<br />
will most likely go one the one that I am presently restoring.<br />
 <br />
Does anyone know of a wheel that is fitted as standard to a vehicle ,that is<br />
sold here in North America ,that would look good on a Stag.<br />
 <br />
I would like to have a set of Minilite's as i think they look fantastic but<br />
the cost to have them shipped from England is prohibitive (anyone this side of<br />
the Atlantic got a set for sale)<br />
 <br />
How do you determine what offset a wheel has and what would be required for a<br />
Stag<br />
 <br />
Cheers<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ I installed the aluminium radiator, that I purchased from Wizard Cooling,in my<br />
Stag and I know that some of you are interested in the results.<br />
 <br />
The craftsmanship is second to none and it just looks fantastic.<br />
 <br />
I had brackets welded on the front of the rad to fasten the 16 inch Spal fan<br />
to. The brackets have 1 3/4 inch vertical slots to enable the correct<br />
positioning of the fan.<br />
 <br />
I also had them install a 3/4 inch drain plug on the bottom of the right hand<br />
header tank.If you remove this plug you can install a 3/4 MIP (male iron<br />
pipe) X 1/2 G.H (garden hose)adaptor,attach your garden hose and give the<br />
cooling system a good flush.<br />
 <br />
I had a 3/8 FIP (female iron pipe)fitting welded 3 inches down on the right<br />
hand header. This is for the thermostatic sensor to switch the fan on and<br />
off.<br />
 <br />
The aluminium rad is wider than the stock rad and I believe that this is a<br />
good thing as it holds more water,has more surface area for cooling and blocks<br />
those open areas at the sides when the stock rad is installed. this helps ram<br />
more air through the rad.<br />
 <br />
I found that I had to enlarge the two holes that the studs on the bottom of<br />
the rad go through as the new rad is considerably thicker.<br />
 <br />
The expansion line is 1/4 inch OD and should be 5/16.  Wizard are aware of<br />
this and will be making the change.<br />
 <br />
I will eventually be removing the engine driven fan and just relying on the<br />
electric one but I wanted to make a true comparison with the way I had the<br />
engine and electric fan both installed previously.<br />
 <br />
I did not install the engine fan shroud on the aluminium rad<br />
 <br />
A couple of weekends ago we took a run from Toronto to Rochester (220 K) with<br />
the ambient temperature hovering around 70-75 F and speeds around 70-73 MPH.<br />
With the previous rad my temperature gauge would have been past the half way<br />
mark. With the aluminium rad the gauge read approximately 1/4.<br />
 <br />
My car is in very good condition and has never really got close to the red on<br />
the gauge ,but it always bothered me when i would go over 70 MPH for<br />
any length of time  the gauge would creep up to the 5/8 point<br />
 <br />
This radiator will not cure any mechanical problems you have but will<br />
certainly reject heat better than the stock one.<br />
 <br />

            <description><![CDATA[ Hi All,<br />
<br />
Replacing my windshield this week, I asked The Roadster factory how many Triumph Stag windshields they have left.<br />
<br />
In case you did not buy when they were on advance order for $249 plus shipping and are wondering if they have any remaining ...<br />
<br />
They have seven (7) PN 917558 Green Tinted (A/C UV tint standard install) windshields.  Price is now $299, USA shipping seems to be $65-$75 comes securely crated in a strong wooden box in 3-5 days UPS Ground.<br />
<br />
TRF (800) 678-8764 in Pennsylvania<br />
<br />
I had Safelite install mine for $100 in labor.<br />
<br />
There are no new Triumph Stag windshields anywhere else in North America.<br />
<br />
Gaskets you need to get from the UK, James Paddock, RobSport, Tony Hart, Rimmers all carry them.  Maybe LD Part??<br />
<br />
Cheers!<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ I see that Tony Harts sells what he calls a Supergill radiator with <br />
a reduced number of tube rows to allow better air flow.  Does anyone <br />
know if this is just a re cored standard radiator?  If so, can I have <br />
mine re cored locally, and essentially come up with the same thing.  <br />
What would I ask the radiator shop for in the way of core material?  <br />
Thanks for any thoughts.  John Mitchell 72 Stag  76 TR6]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I've read things about a inner or middle sill section.  I'm still unsure to what all that refers to and now I have a big hole in the sill I can see what is and isn't there.<br />
What I see in a cross section (behind seats) is the following:<br />
<img src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y3/backyardmechanic/sill.jpg" class="bbcode" border="0" /><br />
There are two small strips approximately where the dotted line is and these are without doubt the jacking point strengtheners, though the actual jack points have long gone.  I had thought this talk of a middle section would be situated along the whole sill at the dotted line.  Mine had no sign of anything ever being present, neither has my employers 1976 model.<br />
<br />
Have I been mistaken?<br />

<br />
For those that may not be familiar, Wheeler Dealers is a &quot;flip this house&quot; type of TV show... only its about classic cars.  The show originates in the UK, but its shown in many markets on the Discovery Channel.<br />
<br />
You can watch the entire episode at this link...<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ Just before our fateful Le Mans expedition, I at last discovered the reason <br />
for the petrol (gas) smell in the boot (trunk).<br />
<br />
There was an open pipe at the top of the fuel tank. So I sealed it and this <br />
seemed to cure the problem.<br />
<br />
However, I still have occasional episodes of cutting out, and I wondered if <br />
I was having similar air lock problem as in other recent postings.<br />
<br />
When the engine stops, I haven't tried opening the fuel filler to see if <br />
there's a vacuum there, but, is this &quot;spare&quot; overflow pipe on the top of the <br />
tank supposed to be sealed, or should it have a similar one way valve to <br />
other Stags to allow air in? If so, where's all the pipework in my car gone?<br />
<br />
In other words, what's this outlet on the top of the tank for, and should it <br />
just be sealed?<br />
<br />
Next job is to clean out the tank, as there's lots of crud coming through to <br />
the underbonnet (hood) fuel filter, - unsurprising when there was an open <br />
pipe to the tank for some considerable time!<br />
<br />

The Meta-FAQ<br />
<br />
1. Why don't my postings go through?<br />
<br />
    There are several things that may interfere with postings<br />
    making it to the list.<br />
<br />
   a) Are you a member?<br />
<br />
       Some read the ftp archives rather than receiving the list<br />
       in email.  Persons who read the list via email are <br />
       automatically members, but readers of the FTP archive are not,<br />
       and need to contact me (rwelty@krusty-motorsports.com) and get<br />
       your name added to the list of &quot;permitted senders&quot;.<br />
<br />
   b) has your email address changed?<br />
<br />
       some of you have had changes in your email address. your old<br />
       address still works, and is still on the list, but your From:<br />
       line shows a new address. this can happen for various reasons;<br />
       you may have changed jobs or ISPs, and left a forward in place,<br />
       or your IT staff may have fiddled with the email system.<br />
<br />
       you will need to unsubscribe your old email address and subscribe<br />
       the new one. this may require my involvement, if you can't figure<br />
       out a way to get your old address off the list using the conventional<br />
       majordomo commands. you can use the majordomo &quot;which&quot; command to<br />
       probe for old addresses. send a message to <a href="mailto:&#109;&#97;&#106;&#111;&#114;&#100;&#111;&#109;&#111;&#64;&#100;&#105;&#103;&#101;&#115;&#116;&#46;&#110;&#101;&#116;">&#109;&#97;&#106;&#111;&#114;&#100;&#111;&#109;&#111;&#64;&#100;&#105;&#103;&#101;&#115;&#116;&#46;&#110;&#101;&#116;</a><br />
       with one or more which commands in the body, one per line. to<br />
       check for potential addresses for Fred Flinstone, formerly of<br />
       bedrock.org, the following commands can be sent:<br />
<br />
          which flintstone<br />
          which bedrock<br />
<br />
       note that the matches above might return any of the following<br />
       addresses, if they appear in the list (in other words, you can<br />
       use vagueness and incompleteness in your recollection as a tool):<br />
<br />
            <a href="mailto:&#70;&#114;&#101;&#100;&#46;&#70;&#108;&#105;&#110;&#115;&#116;&#111;&#110;&#101;&#64;&#98;&#101;&#100;&#114;&#111;&#99;&#107;&#46;&#111;&#114;&#103;">&#70;&#114;&#101;&#100;&#46;&#70;&#108;&#105;&#110;&#115;&#116;&#111;&#110;&#101;&#64;&#98;&#101;&#100;&#114;&#111;&#99;&#107;&#46;&#111;&#114;&#103;</a><br />
            <a href="mailto:&#102;&#102;&#108;&#105;&#110;&#115;&#116;&#111;&#110;&#101;&#64;&#119;&#105;&#108;&#109;&#97;&#46;&#98;&#101;&#100;&#114;&#111;&#99;&#107;&#46;&#111;&#114;&#103;">&#102;&#102;&#108;&#105;&#110;&#115;&#116;&#111;&#110;&#101;&#64;&#119;&#105;&#108;&#109;&#97;&#46;&#98;&#101;&#100;&#114;&#111;&#99;&#107;&#46;&#111;&#114;&#103;</a><br />
            <a href="mailto:&#102;&#108;&#105;&#110;&#116;&#115;&#116;&#111;&#110;&#101;&#102;&#64;&#98;&#101;&#100;&#114;&#111;&#99;&#107;&#46;&#99;&#111;&#109;">&#102;&#108;&#105;&#110;&#116;&#115;&#116;&#111;&#110;&#101;&#102;&#64;&#98;&#101;&#100;&#114;&#111;&#99;&#107;&#46;&#99;&#111;&#109;</a><br />
<br />
   c) do you have more than one email address?<br />
<br />
       if so, only the subscribed addresses can post, unless you contact<br />
       me (see 1.a) above for relevant information)<br />
<br />
   d) are you using (intentionally or accidentially) special &quot;features&quot;<br />
      of your mail client?<br />
<br />
	[this section is no longer operative, as the demime software<br />
	now strips html, attachments, rich text format, etc. from<br />
	postings automatically.]<br />
<br />
   e) are your posts too large?<br />
<br />
       there is a 10,000 character limit on posting sizes; this is done<br />
       for various reasons. you can always split up large postings to<br />
       get mail through.<br />
<br />
   f) are you including majordomo commands at the start of your message?<br />
<br />
       administrivia control is turned on; this is a trap for things<br />
       like &quot;unsubscribe&quot; at the start of a message. try to avoid obvious<br />
       majordomo commands in the subject and the first 10 lines, or<br />
       misspell them in obvious ways (e.g. unzubscribe, 1ndex, h3lp,<br />
       g3t, etc.)<br />
<br />
   g) are you triggering spam traps?<br />
<br />
       some things are red flags; for example, many phrases found<br />
       commonly in spam are automatically blocked.<br />
<br />
   h) are you using &quot;funky&quot; character sets?<br />
<br />
       [7 bit restriction lifted experimentally on 8/2/00 -- film at 11]<br />
<br />
       unfortunately, there are &quot;issues&quot; if i permit any character set<br />
       other than old fashioned 7 level ASCII; therefore, you need to<br />
       avoid national character sets that include various accents, umlauts,<br />
       national currency characters such as the British pound symbol, etc.<br />
<br />
   i) are you unintentionally including complete digests in your reply?<br />
<br />
       You need to check and make sure you cut down replys to the minimal<br />
       size; digests are between 20,000 and 25,000 characters in length,<br />
       and if you include a complete digest in your reply, it clearly won't<br />
       make the 10,000 character limit. By the way, this feature is<br />
       intentional.<br />
<br />
   j) Are you using a &quot;bad&quot; ISP or mail relay?<br />
<br />
       See [<a href="http://www.digest.net/email-policy.html" rel="nofollow" >www.digest.net</a>] for more information<br />
       about Digest.Net policies about email.<br />
<br />
   k) Is the error message you get back &quot;User Unknown&quot;?<br />
<br />
       If so, you may be running afoul of spam control severices<br />
       (again, see [<a href="http://www.digest.net/email-policy.html" rel="nofollow" >www.digest.net</a>])<br />
       When these services register a hit, the error code 550 is returned.<br />
       550 is a generic code that many broken mail systems report as<br />
       &quot;user unknown&quot;.  The &quot;rejectlog&quot; entries for the previous day's mail<br />
       traffic on digest.net may be viewed at<br />
       [<a href="http://www.digest.net/rejectlog.01" rel="nofollow" >www.digest.net</a>]<br />
       Some of you may find it useful or instructive to use the telnet<br />
       program to connect directly to port 25 on krusty-motorsports.com<br />
       and see what kind of reply you get; this requires some technical<br />
       knowledge and is not for everyone (you can get out of this at anytime<br />
       after the initial banner simply by typing quit and hitting enter.)<br />
<br />
   l) Is SMTP over TLS involved?<br />
<br />
       This is a bit esoteric, but as of 8/8/01 the digest.net mail server<br />
       will attempt to use &quot;TLS&quot; (Transport Layer Security) for outbound<br />
       mail if the destination mail server offers it. SMTP over TLS is<br />
       fairly new technology, and a bit buggy. I am monitoring the logs<br />
       on the server, and when I see TLS related problems, I manually<br />
       place the problem destinations on a special exception list; however,<br />
       this may delay email to the destination host until I make the<br />
       exception.<br />
   <br />
2. Why can't I unsubscribe?<br />
<br />
   a) are you using the right address?<br />
<br />
       send to <a href="mailto:&#109;&#97;&#106;&#111;&#114;&#100;&#111;&#109;&#111;&#64;&#100;&#105;&#103;&#101;&#115;&#116;&#46;&#110;&#101;&#116;">&#109;&#97;&#106;&#111;&#114;&#100;&#111;&#109;&#111;&#64;&#100;&#105;&#103;&#101;&#115;&#116;&#46;&#110;&#101;&#116;</a>, and the command format is<br />
<br />
        unsubscribe list-name my-email-address<br />
<br />
   b) has your email address changed?<br />
<br />
       majordomo has no way of knowing that <a href="mailto:&#70;&#114;&#101;&#100;&#46;&#70;&#108;&#105;&#110;&#115;&#116;&#111;&#110;&#101;&#64;&#66;&#97;&#114;&#110;&#101;&#121;&#67;&#111;&#46;&#99;&#111;&#109;">&#70;&#114;&#101;&#100;&#46;&#70;&#108;&#105;&#110;&#115;&#116;&#111;&#110;&#101;&#64;&#66;&#97;&#114;&#110;&#101;&#121;&#67;&#111;&#46;&#99;&#111;&#109;</a> was<br />
       once <a href="mailto:&#102;&#102;&#108;&#105;&#110;&#116;&#115;&#116;&#111;&#110;&#101;&#64;&#98;&#101;&#100;&#114;&#111;&#99;&#107;&#46;&#111;&#114;&#103;">&#102;&#102;&#108;&#105;&#110;&#116;&#115;&#116;&#111;&#110;&#101;&#64;&#98;&#101;&#100;&#114;&#111;&#99;&#107;&#46;&#111;&#114;&#103;</a>.  you can check this with the which<br />
       command (see 1.b) above for details)<br />
<br />
<br />
3. How do I post to the list?<br />
<br />
   You may use either one of two addresses: for example, the bmw-digest<br />
   may be reached using either <a href="mailto:&#98;&#109;&#119;&#64;&#100;&#105;&#103;&#101;&#115;&#116;&#46;&#110;&#101;&#116;">&#98;&#109;&#119;&#64;&#100;&#105;&#103;&#101;&#115;&#116;&#46;&#110;&#101;&#116;</a> or <a href="mailto:&#98;&#109;&#119;&#45;&#100;&#105;&#103;&#101;&#115;&#116;&#64;&#100;&#105;&#103;&#101;&#115;&#116;&#46;&#110;&#101;&#116;">&#98;&#109;&#119;&#45;&#100;&#105;&#103;&#101;&#115;&#116;&#64;&#100;&#105;&#103;&#101;&#115;&#116;&#46;&#110;&#101;&#116;</a><br />
<br />
   If you are using the correct addresses and your posts don't show<br />
   up, check out the stuff in 1. above.<br />
<br />
4. Where are the archives?<br />
<br />
   see [<a href="ftp://ftp.digest.net/" rel="nofollow" >ftp.digest.net</a>] for digest archives. the web archives have<br />
   proven problematic, and are awaiting time for a systematic attack<br />
   on the problems they've been having.<br />
<br />
5. What other lists are on digest.net?<br />
<br />
   see [<a href="http://www.digest.net/" rel="nofollow" >www.digest.net</a>] for more information.<br />
<br />
6. Is there a web subscription form?<br />
<br />
   Yes, recently added. go to<br />
<br />
    [<a href="http://www.digest.net/bin/digest-subs.cgi" rel="nofollow" >www.digest.net</a>]<br />
<br />
7. Why not move the lists to someplace like (egroups, topica,...)?<br />
<br />
   The Krusty Motorsports server (aka, digest.net) was explicitly<br />
   to provide for efficient management of the various automotive<br />
   mailing lists, done the way that the owner of the server wanted<br />
   it done. Any migration off of the server (which is already bought,<br />
   paid for, and configured) would create any number of issues.<br />
<br />
8. How do i contact the Server Administrator in an emergency?<br />
<br />
   If my regular email address (rwelty@krusty-motorsports.com)<br />
   isn't working for you, you can fall back on <a href="mailto:&#114;&#119;&#101;&#108;&#116;&#121;&#64;&#115;&#117;&#101;&#115;&#112;&#97;&#109;&#109;&#101;&#114;&#115;&#46;&#111;&#114;&#103;">&#114;&#119;&#101;&#108;&#116;&#121;&#64;&#115;&#117;&#101;&#115;&#112;&#97;&#109;&#109;&#101;&#114;&#115;&#46;&#111;&#114;&#103;</a><br />
<br />
9. What is Krusty Motorsports, anyway?<br />
<br />
   Krusty Motorsports (http:/www.krusty-motorsports.com/) is a<br />
   business which is owned and operated by Richard Welty<br />
   (rwelty@krusty-motorsports.com). Krusty is an S-Corporation in<br />
   the State of New York. Krusty provides a number<br />
   of Internet related services, such as mailing list, web sites,<br />
   pop3/telnet accounts, and consulting on internet related issues.<br />

            <description><![CDATA[ Well, the plot thickens.  Upon jacking the car today, the R rear wheel was<br />
about to come off.  two wheel studs were sheared off and floating about<br />
behind the wheel, one of the two remaining nuts was about halfway off and<br />
the stud was worn to about half its diameter and the last one was barely<br />
tight allowing the whole wheel/splined shaft assembly to pivot about the one<br />
last stud.  So I think this was the cause and the subframe mounts gave way<br />
as a result of that.  At least that is fairly simple to repair as well and at<br />
least the wheel assembly didn't pass me going down the road.<br />
