[DMCForum] Re: Bill Robertson, Anti-Mechanic

["content22207" <brobertson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

So I'm the Anti-Mechanic now? What an exciting new venue. I can
capture the souls of wayward cars and transport them to eternal torment.

Seriously, what have I done that's so terrible:

I made a Hervey-esque fuel tank baffle from a tuna fish can. Look at
the pictures -- dimensionally it's virtually 100% identical to his!
Only difference is stiffer construction, solid bottom, and $1.69 cost
(would have thought you'd be happy for me to fix it for so little). If
it's the overall concept you're upset with, I suggest you give him the
crap because he designed it. It is a good design BTW.

I let Louie *BORROW* one of my Series 038 CPR's. Please note that I
didn't force this piece of hardware on him -- I offered it and he
accepted. And I don't see him rushing to give it back... Of course if
he ever does decide to go back to stock, his 066 Series is waiting
patiently on a shelf in his parents' garage. 

I showed Ray Troxel, AT HIS REQUEST (big capital letters) how to
disable CIS and Lambda and tune his engine manually. He asked me -- I
didn't force him. Last I checked he was happy with the results. If he
ever does decide to go back to stock, I estimate 2 or 3 minutes to
re-enable them. 5 minutes if he stops to swig some iced tea in the
process.

And of course the pie'ce de re'sistance: A carbureted PRV! Here's a
news flash for you -- I DIDN'T INVENT A SERIES B28! Volvo beat me to
the punch 25 years ago. My only sin is taking advantage of their
engineering. The horror, the horror.

"Urp" means urp, although you are quickly pushing its limits. I may
need to move up to some other biological function.

Consider this: If what you say about me is true, DeLorean owners can
simply do the opposite of anything I've ever done and their cars will
run forever.

Take a number...
