New Clutch and Flywheel questions

[jtoomasson@yahoo.com (Jeff Toomasson)]

Look, man - believe me, I'm not saying don't offer your knowledge. You

I'm just saying you don't have to be such a jerk about it. Get over
yourself.

Do you really laugh your ass off when someone on this list screws up? Too
bad.
