    I goofed. Fuse for Cig Lighter?

    I muscled it right out the front - it'll go. The black wire w/ white stripe is positive (I'm assuming - remember - it just stopped working on me so I may not be the guy to ask. . . And none of the fuses in the kick panel box are called cigarette light or auxillary or anything.

    Rear brake caliper.

    Hmmmm. Brakework sucks. Maybe it is cocked in the bore? Try getting the puck all the way out of the caliper and cleaning everything up real good. Lube it with some fresh brake fluid and try to get it back in. Get as much fluid into the caliper before yur put the puck back in (less bleeding...

    Gobble Gobble

    OK you got me interested. A few questions: *Is it easy to install - straight bolt-on? *Does it really give you 15 hp? *Does it hurt fuel mileage (I'm getting 30mpg! - all highway) *Are there any bad side-effects?
