luckily there was no one else on the road, in the car, or in the persons front yard at the time. the driver got out
and with blood coming from a large laceration behind his right ear (impact with the seat belt pillar), took a few
steps and collapsed. ambulance was called and took him to hospital with neck brace, etc ... he is OK although
has a fractured skull and is recovering, painfully.
Should read: "he is OK although has a fractured skull and is recovering. Upon recovery, he will be promptly killed"

That would result in a severe beating.....followed by, "What about 'change my oil' tanslated into 'total my car, dip$hit'?

Speaking of oil changes....I had the oil changed in my Evo last week and they evidently overfilled it....it is probably an inch above the full mark on the dipstick and you can smell burning oil....I am taking it back in in the morning to get it drained...is there anything I should have them check or that could have been damaged?

I don't think an extra quart will hurt it, but don't quote me on that.

It's been making funny sounds for a while...

Honestly, I don't know. Give Steve a call, he might have a good idea, and I'll ask around.
