I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.11 (latest update).

The only Add-On I have installed is IE Tab, just because I hate having to
go to IE for the few pages that don't work right in Firefox. I do allow
Firefox to upgrade whenever it prompts me to, and I've found Firefox to be
completely stable and reliable.

The collapsed oil control ring theory came from a tech who posts in
rec.autos.tech. It sounds plausible to me, but without tearing the motor
apart, who knows for sure? In light of the fact that's it's academic
anyway, I do subscribe to that theory.
