Hey, TexD,

Glad to hear you're not on your way to joining the "blown plug club"!

That "stetoscope" thing is a good idea. Now I'll know what to do if I hear that dreaded "sound" (after I sh$t a brick)

Thanks. Let us know how it goes.

Bill

oh yeah a trick my dad showed me many moons ago also you can take a long extension and put it on head bolts or other areas and hear inside the motor,just put the end of the extension on the pad of your thumb and stick the first knuckle up to the bone just in front of your ear canel...try it
