Jeez it happenned to you too then!!
Yeah i still remember faintly when i used to wake up with an erection. Does not happen too often now. But a lot better than the Japs manage, they only wake up like that when a new government is needed. Apparently they wake up with an election.

Yeah true, when the pricks that rule us say 75% of smokers want to stop, it's far more to do with cost than health concerns. 15 billion a year it tobacco tax is not enough for them, the greedy bastards want more.

That is the truth, everybody I know gave up because of cost, with only one or 2 due to health reasons, if I had a steady stream of cheap smokes, I would probably still be on them

I gave in Sept 2008....
I started smoking at 15, I was approaching my 31st birthday in Jan 2009 - maths dictated that if I was still smoking when I turned 31 - that means that I would have been smoking for more than 50% of my life at that point and I didn't like the odds - Mums side of the family have all passed on due to heart and lung dieseases(spelling) in their 50's - mum and her now ailing sister are all that is left of her side of the family....didn't wanna risk it, I take physically after there side of the clan so thought quit now or regret it later....
AND I STILL WANNA HAVE A SMOKE....!!!

Personally I think once a smoker, always a smoker, just don't participate, I think any addiction is the same

Eventually the addiction goes and the smoke becomes repellant. I gave up in 1970 after a near death experience

There is no oil pump above stat but there is a vacuum pump. O ring for that is either STC2219, WYX000030 or 8510328.

Don't have a clue three listed. Go to dealers give him vin number he will know. For a quick fix if O ring is not broken. Or even if it is. Strip off remove O ring carefully and clean it and mating surfaces with spirit. Smear some Hylomar on O ring, it's groove and boss it slips onto. Then slip back together, it won't leak again.
