Saturn may be no more but we still have our vehicles. Where did everybody
go?

... still a few lurkers here.
The overall decline of usenet is evident
in most of my groups.

I still prefer usenet to browser based groups. I find browser based
navigation awkward.
Microsoft dumped out of usenet for their support groups and are doing only
web based now. They released a nntp bridge for those of us who prefer usenet
clients. I've not been able to get it to work so far.

'01 lw300 is still running well. Almost time for my second timing belt. This
is one car that I gladly pay someone else to change the belt. I've done them
on 4-bangers where the alignment and tensioning is straightforward. The 3L
engine has 4 camshafts and two tensioners. Several special tools needed that
I couldn't justify buying.

The AutoTap Express DIY tool paid for itself already in diagnosing some
sensor problems on the car. Been helping out several of the neighbors with
it too. They're running another special price deal if anybody should be
interested.

Take care all - Oppie

Hey Oppie and everyone. I still have also been lurking the forums and
SaturnFans as well. My Astra is doing well, still loving it.

Good to hear from all you lurkers again not that you've been 'outed' <smile>

btw- I've been doing a bit of business with AutoZone lately. They opened a
branch in Greenburgh, NY ( a few miles from home). Had been buying largely
through CarQuest before and found lots of items were 'dealer only'...
Autozone had many of the parts available either as new or remanufactured.
MAF for LW300 was only $90 after core return. CTS was $39 and MAP was $99.
Nice online ordering and pickup at store. Some of the part descriptions are
a bit vague so sometimes needed to have someone do a stock check and confirm
just what is included with a part.
