Didn't idle at all really - I just pulled right into the garage after a 250 mile freeway run and shut 'er down. I'm thinking we are looking pretty good for now.

You are really helping to set the Gold Standard for your really fine work. You've earned your wings.

You're the wind beneath my earned wings - you salty porkshank you.

I hate you now.

Don't hate me yet! I still have a bit of a rough idle - a little rough rocking going on. More rpms and it seems to straighten out. I'll enjoy being a passenger while you take it for a spin and we work out a few of the little things here and there.

This would be a good time to go nuts in the engine bay with chocolate sauce. That would indeed teach him good-like.
