the starter was dead so i sent it in for a rebuilt at a local rotary shop. 80 bucks with a 6 month warranty so not bad.

Great read. Sometimes I wish my commute (5-miles) was longer when I'm driving the FD.
I barely get some Queen or Pink Floyd tunes in . . .

wow... I am touched... like Formula said, I'm proud to be one of the few FD owners. Damn, makes me wish I drove her today! I drove the dd today because it called for rain!

We need more posts like this, where it describes the joy of OWNING and DRIVING the FD, not only when it's broken down and needs a fix.

agreed, maybe a separate section of the forum for good reads like this lol

when FD owners are depressed and down of reading or posting FD problems, they go to this part of the forum for some lifting of the spirit and inspiration!!
