Hi list! I've been gone for the last three years or so, but I have since returned to the list. I'm Dave, from central Massachusetts (still snowing here), and I own a 1961 Newport, and a few other non-fwdlk classics. It's good to be back and while I'm here, I have a burning question that applies to any car with a manual tranny. A friend's father recently drove her car and to "save gas" he drove it about 25 MPH in fifth gear. I told her this was bad, she asked me why, and I didn't know the proper response. Any thoughts from this marvelous fount of automotive knowledge? Thanks in advance, ~dave __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - You care about security.
