Remember: Your first Dodge is nobody's fault, your second Dodge is your own darn fault.

Back in my service station days those things were still in service. Remember the bushings they sold for the distributor hole? The distributor (hard) would hammer around in the hole in the block (softer) causing the thing to run crappy because it was always out of time.

I'm pretty sure that on my tombstone I'll be able to put on there:
"Never owned a Chrysler product"

One of the many benefits of working on hundreds of cars. You get to see who makes/sells crap and who makes good vehicles.

Remember the AMC plastic valve covers? They always leaked but were installed under the firewall so you couldn't remove them to replace the gasket - unless you pulled the engine or caved in the firewall. I wonder why they are no longer in business?!?
