[DeTomaso] Oil Coolers (again)

[adin at frontier.net]

Bwahahahahahem.

Can't argue with success.

If/when something breaks and/or goes wrong (and something always does)  
then how does one know what went wrong?

Example: I'm trying to figure carburation/advance curve on a new  
motor.  If I'm getting pre-ignition "somewhere" in the range, how does  
one know if its advance or mixture?  I don't know enough to figure  
this out without the a/f meter telling me the mixture during that  
pre-ignition.

So, when/if Larry's motor makes the big noise ("that tune always was  
hard on oilpans") how will one know why??????

David, yes i'm picky and dumb and need 8 crutches to solve the problem
