As founder of the DML, moderator emeritus, and the original "Iron Hand", I agree with Dave Swingle. The list was started for discussion of the original car, company and man - not watches, or any new cars JZD may claim to be producing. That's a perfect subject for some energetic person to do with a DIFFERENT Egroups list.

ALL DML'ers READ! I just recieved an email from a Bobby D. Mims. It stated that it was an auto reply from MSN.COM when indeed it came from TYLER.COM. It had an attachment called Fun.Exe. THIS FILE IS A WORM VIRUS! Delete this email if you recieve it. I got it as a response to my posting to the brake problem posting on the DML. ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Message: 3 Date: Wed, 20 Sep 2000 22:07:34 -0500 From: Jim Reeve <ultra@xxxxxxx> Subject: 16"/17" Wheels I remember a while ago a few people were talking about getting the 16"/17" wheels. Well I've seen what the 15"/16" wheels look like on the car, but I have not seen what the 16"/17" look like. If any of you with the 16"/17" could perhaps upload some pictures of them on your car to the vault, or email me privately, it would be greatly appreciated. Right now getting new wheels is not even close to being on my to-do list for my new car, but I am just curious.

It has been shown to corrode the rim resulting in a sudden failure of the rim and loss of control. It is to be used only as an emergency repair and must soon be followed up by complete removal and proper repair.

This breaker has an extra spade lug on it and is convenient to hook onto. It is also a safe place if you hook onto the output side of the breaker. Of course, you should have a fuse in the power line going to your CD changer. Chances are, one is already there. Off hand I don't know of any places to connect to ground in that area. If someone tells you a better place, let me know.

The seats are alot more comfortable now, but I have a slight problem with the drivers side. If you push your back into the seat hard enough, the top portion of the panel on the back pops out. Passenger seat is fine. Any ideas? >> ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________
