OK OK, You got me Bruce<SMILE>
I was running at 3000 to 4000 RPM  NOT 30000 to 40000

If you look the message was sent at 4:39 AM. I was in a daze and should have
been in bed. Besides, what is a Zero? It's nothing<GRIN>

Dave, I think your problem is that you were over-revving your engine!  
I'm sure some of the guys on FastVairs would be interested in you
