...Well Summer is here and I rolled the Urq out of the garage for the first time since the weekend after Thanksgiving 2003. spent Sunday morning cleaning the bird's nest under my power steering pump and charging the battery. checked the fluids, topped the head with some oil and fired her up. Runs like a champ on shitty gas and oil. This weekend her fluids will be changed. First drive on the street was excellent. Smoooth, plenty of power, turbo still pulling like a runaway freight train. Washed all the dust off her and looks as good as when she was parked half a year ago.
 
I did notice however that anytime I added weight to the right front rear the front end would shake bad. Enough to make me take it easy in left corners. Tire pressure was right on and the weights look like they're all there. I noticed anytime I pull into my drive way it sounded like the spring was spinning around in it's stand. Any BT's Thanks Mike C.
