That is a problem I don’t want to think about. I hope that is not it. It does seem to run a lot better since I set the time, but I may have to revisit it if all the other things are done in vain.

They might be old. I thought they were replaced with the engine, but now that I look at them, they look a little weathered. I just ordered some new ones

This sounds like the path I am currently on. Thank you for your write up. It has many useful things for me to check.

Nice! Where did you get the cup holders?
