[DML] Re: Sight glass coolant tank

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We don't have to invoke religious figures to prove our points. We can
all have an honest difference of opinion. I give mine and you, as a
large vendor of Delorean products, give yours. We both have a lot of
knowledge and experience, just different points of view. I respect
your opinions as a parts vendor just as you usually value mine as a
mechanic. As I previously said, I only offer a different point of
view, not always the same as yours. I do not mean to be argumentative,
I leave that to Mark Levy. The readers of the DML can make up their
own minds as to what they choose to do (which is not necessarily
either of our points of view!). My main aim in posting is to inform
objectively, I do not charge for my services nor do I get any
compensation for endorsements from any vendors. I do have a cordial
relationship with most vendors (including you too I hope).
