My sister got a citation as her first new car. She brought it home and was showing it off to me. Dad had old cars with no features so this was 5 steps above.....
I took hold of the blinker lever it had 5 different functions which is normal now but we never saw a blinker lever that did more than up and down.
It came off in my hand, I had the blinker lever pulled out of the steering column. The look on my sisters face....... I was a dead person.
No problem no problem, it just sticks in here I say. I was just stalling for the few seconds I needed to run for my life.....
I jammed the lever back in its socket, and darned if that worked and never gave her any trouble.
Whew.
The end of the week we took a brother sister trip out west to Washington and Oregon some relatives out there. So sis was babying the car some. We got to Montana and Mount St Helens blew up for the second time. The entire state of Idaho (granted not very wide) we never say, was in the haze of the ashes. It also drizzled rain. Sis was beside herself what the ash was doing to her new car engibpbe. The drizzle cemented the ash onto the car. When we got home she went over the car with basically her thumb, pushing all that ash off the car without scrubbing it into the paint.
Yes, the Citation has a bit of memories with me. All in all it was a good car for her, I know they were sort of a Dak link with a lot of poor management decisions on their components, but it worked for her.

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
