Addressed to: Karl Wolz <wolzphoto@WORLDNET.ATT.NET> vanagon@GERRY.VANAGON.COM ** Reply to note from Karl Wolz <wolzphoto@WORLDNET.ATT.NET> Fri, 24 May 2002 14:31:30 -0700 Heh...one of my keys is definitely longer than the other, but I never thought of the keyway being off center. I'll keep that in mind when I wrestle with it next time...I've only filled the tank once so far... Thanks Tom
