Timing

[Vincent Gelinas]

I'm in the market for a Bentley.  I've been looking for one since I got the
car, but the only ones I can find are about 150-200 dollars, depending on
condition.  I think I found one for 130, but I haven't been able to find it
again.  Of course, Chilton or Haynes doesn't have one even for basic
reference :(

Does anyone have enough experience using the ebahn software?  With the
e-manual for the 90, it's about 110.

Fleabay is a good idea.  I'll have to look and see what I can find.

And yes, Vinnie is perfectly fine.  It's what most people call me :)
