Hi All....


Well I think I solved the power-loss, oil-loss problem with my 87. The
other day I checked the oil while it was parked on a slant (didn't think it
was much of a slant at the time). The dipstick showed about a quart or so
low...so I put in a quart. When I came home last night, it showed about 3/4
of a quart gone.

This morning I went to a flat parking lot, checked the oil...this time I
was 1/2 quart over. Lesson learned!

Oh well...I needed a bit of "excitement" last night.
