Recently I replaced my Bomb. Although there were other areas of my car
that I could have dumped money into, the bad bomb I had been running
around with was dangerous. 

I ran on a bad bomb for at least a year. Twice I was lucky not to have
had a serious accident. Once was someone cutting a stoplight. The second
time was a deer crossing.

A bad bomb feels "normal" until you have to stomp on the brakes. When
you do, you *WILL* be in for a big surprise. Make sure you insurance
premiums are paid...
