Well, Rob was right;also, request from Linda@Carlsen



Rob Winchell warned me that I would be "turning up the cigarette lighter
instead of the volume _all_ the time."

Did it on the way home today :)
"Hey!  @#!$ radio's bu...oh..."

Could get dangerous; I like the "push for next station" feature
:o

What on earth posessed them to make the lighter the exact same size, shape,
and height as the radio volume?

Oh, and I called "Linda" and Carlsen today to aquire a good WGFV.  She was
very helpful, but "I'm cranky 'cause you don't have a part number!"
Jovial, good humored, and went out of her way to see how low she could go
from the $70-80 for the valve, which is named an Electro-Change-Over-Valve;
she started on a flurry of calls without my even saying a word, on another
phone while I listened...everyone was off to lunch though.

Here's Linda's request:
"Now MEMORIZE that damn name!" :)

So any of you turbo owners out there, memorize the fact that the wastegate
frequency valve is really a "Electro-Change-over-valve."  Save everyone at
parts desks everywhere some time :)

Linda: "Why do they call it that?  It's a wastegate frequency valve!  Arg!"

She spent a bit of time trying to find it until I said "It's got a direct
connection to the Wastegate"
"Bingo.  Got it."

Waiting to hear back; she was going to check with some aftermarket people
and see if she could get it for less than the $70-80 for new.  I may just
get a new one, since these things are time-sensitive and I don't want to
get one that's had 3/4 of its life eaten up...
