        230C? F? oil temp? cylinder head temp? Is this some form of motorcycle?

        Are you one of the Gay Pirate Parade Brigade or is this a Suzuki?

            Yes, I have been a bit hot lately, the temps here in southern Mississippi are in the upper 90s.

            My valves have not been clattering.

            130 more degrees and you will have a circle.




            Yeah, I agree with tkent, ... what are you talking about????
