Back to the original issues for a moment, while i was working through this
I found that  Bus Depot has new OEM 1.9 liter AFM's for half price.  Van
Cafe had some, if I remember correctly, for twice that much and they are
NLA.  Dennis says they rarely go bad, but it sure is tempting.  Bus Depot
does have a $50 core charge, though.
