    No start situation - GE to GTE swap

    BHGs can be intermittant leaks. sometimes it will leak, others it wont. i suspect that doing a compression test on a cold motor with a BHG of that type, would still give you acceptable readings.

    San Francisco, shame on you.

    my 2cents is this, why do we need recruiters in the schools? if someone wants to join the service then they will go to a local office and sign up there. why do they have to come and try to brainwash us while we are trying to get an education and land a job in some field? joining the military...
