I'll mention all this to my current builder but everything worked fine for about 4 months. I was down to painting the hood tach and now this happens. Also, I only use Amsoil filters.
Also, I went to the Detroit Dream Cruise last Sat and saw a grand total of 2 Firebirds. I did see a 4 door Corvete. I was also looking for a Nash Metropolitan but never saw one. Got back to our car and there was one parked next to us. Small world.
