Yes, my nice colored (red and silver) engine is now dead.  After 1500KM, a bearing, just let go, (metal pieces everywhere in the engine).  Thursday, on my way to Dan (Belleville), I heard that funny noise in the engine   Angry  Cry, I then called Dan. He and his wife came to my rescue. They drove 1h30 to Kingston, we rented a trailer that Dan happily pulled with his 3.8 supercharged minivan to his place. Now my Fiero is in Dan's garage waiting for another engine   Sad .  Dan even gave me a ride in his Fiero up to the train station.

Again Thanks Dan and Julie, for everything your did, you actually lost a full day for me.  It's fun to get someone to help you when you are in that situation… Afro
