<VV> Turbo Odyssey Part 22 -- It's Alive!

[Norman C. Witte]

Bill,

Thanks for your words of wisdom.  I definitely agree that the plastic filter
is a temporary thing.  I just want to make sure I am not getting a bunch of
sludge from the tank.  My thinking is that it comes out when I have the car
up on jacks to do the rear seat belts, which should be in about three or
four weeks.  By then the tale should be told.
