I'm with you on that one. I look forward to a lot of pictures of the repairs peformed on the GS. He may even give others on here the shove they need to do some wrenching themselves. Always nice to have tech threads with pics.

Every n00b steps in it from time to time. Some handle it with poise, others don't. We were all there at one time.
