Morning guys. Since I'm still up, I figured I'd contribute to this fine thread and say HI!

Off to bed now. Long day...

Thanks Dave. So am I. It's still dead though - at least until Steve looks at the DME.

It probably is a broken solder joint. They are not always easy to spot. Steve also has a post that shows a couple locations that are prone to failure. He'll figure it out.

+1 on the broken solder.... I had a bike with that issue...

Ok boys I'm going to bed.... Looks like we aren't going to get much fluffy white stuff... Just slick stuff... Hope I can sleep till it clears off tomorrow.

Start them on the Swedish jello vodka shots early this year?

Did you remind them about the fathers day gifts?

Unleashed in the East, pounding through 2,000 watts is not advisable while driving on snow/ice covered roads.

Yup, we are all having age and weight related dosages of medical alcohol blended with a variety of lemonade and juice. They have made good regarding fathers day and promised me a bunch of Porsche magazines for Christmas.

Markus, i started it just for you, just get a subscription. Think about it, nobody else has a full magazine, with just one copy , just for him, fully tailored to suit his needs...

Dear GDSID,
last week, i was cruising down the highway at a leisurely 45mph,
when i accidentally mis-shifted from 4th to 5th, i wanted to be in 3rd, the idea being to give my engine a bit of workout, but revving up to 4000 rpm.
For obvious reasons, it scared the be-jezus out of me as the car started to accelerate.
Luckely i managed to contain the situation, and got it into Neutral, applied full brakes before i reached 49.

Please tell me how i can avoid such a dangerous event.
Is there a way to remove 5th gear completely from the shifter pattern?
Can i just jam a piece of wood in there, or should i have the 5th gear physically removed from the gear box by a mechanic??
