Thanks, 5 may be over my limit since I've been cutting down trying to
lose weight so my bikes will last longer.
I guess I've got until this weekend to think about it. I was on
vacation all last week with nothing but honeydo's to keep me busy. I
went and bought a can of Marvel Mystery Oil to see if I could quiet my
valvetrain on the shovel a bit. It seemed like it might actually have
helped a bit. Why couldn't the thing have broken while I had a whole
week of free time ahead of me? Oh well my next week off is scheduled
for the last week in September.
