I've always thought my car was immune to the Baron Munchausen's problems; 
haven't had half the issues with my car that some others have had.  
...course, I do some maintenance/fluid changes more often than some other 
people.
Plus I drive the car hard enough and fast enough.  I think the car rebels if 
you don't hit redline fairly often.
Those bushings in the photo were replaced by parts rec'd from Rod at TPC; the 
part numbers should be readable on the bag in the background.
