Re: Urq MB



Well Phil as the man who put boost behind each gear change I think that
really answers where I should take the car for its cam belt!!

200 miles and STILL WOTing even with the masking tape holding the switch
halves together.

Listers, Phil's practical competence is as great as the list wisdom he
dispenses, watching him and Roger Galvin work as a team on my car, and then
with Roger in the back calling out the boost pressure, me driving, and Phil
leaning out of the window touching two wires connected to the WOT switch
when I called 3000rpm, and getting that extra boost was great. Two extremely
helpful kind guys. Many thanks.

Daryl
