It's purring, not leaking, it stops, it goes, the wipers work. Dang what do I do with all this free time?
Maybe I'll change a fluid or something. Oh hum.
OH NO, Wait...
Hey is the brake lite supposed to flicker high and low when the parking brake is on?
Quickly to the Batcave....

Oh man, you are tempting fate the likes of which I've never seen....
I thought mine was doing well last week. Yep, everything was lined out..Then the fuel pump went kaput, and a normally 1 hr job ended up at about 8 due to a domino effect of mishaps.
You might wanna go burn an old air filter as a sacrifice to appease the jeep gods, or annoint yourself with ATF fluid, or somethin'.

Two weeks ago I reistalled (for the third time) my tranny and I slashed my hand someplace and bled pretty good on the WAggy. Maybe thats all it needed....

Hey Rudy, just to keep in practice jump on the Batphone and try to track down: a)a harmonic balancer for a 401, b)a windshield washer fluid line, c)a NOS headlight bezel and d) cheap QT fluid. It's like a muscle...you have to keep exercising it or you lose it.
