Don't worry about offending me, my wife thinks I'm still a kid, too, or at least childish!

Heck terntes.........I misspelled Corvette above.......I spelled it Covette....(which I since corrected).........everybody makes mistakes. My wife thinks the same as yours and Joel's............we are all considered childish (a kid), and as far as I'm concerned, that's great........I NEVER want to grow up.  In my mind I'm still 18 and at times act even younger. Sometimes my wife acts more like my mother.

I'm just now getting around to the fix for my tach, it seems like there were two or three other things that needed attention. I found my filter hold down clamp bolt loose, the filter was loose enough to swivel freely. I didn't see any other means of grounding so I assume it is grounded throug the body. I merely tightened the bolt securely and now my tach is much better. Could it have been as simple as that?
Thanks again,
terntes
