Ok Guys, lots of driving this weekend and I have a few more questions...
1. Haven't noticed it with the top down but with the top up some times when the engine is realatively cool, I hear what sounds like a liquid / gurgling sound. What in the world is this? something to be alarmed about?
2. I know this is really petty, but I want the car to be as perfect as it can... Any tips for the fog light button being off center? I'm guessing this is a result of the previous owner over torquing the button and now it doesn't line up as it should. If I put it in the right position it's loose and will turn it self due to vibration.
3. My engine sounds a lot like a boat when at idle but purrs like a cat at 3500 and up when giving it a little exercise. I assume this is pretty normal for a 91 with about 97K on the clock.
all and all, I'm most pleased... What a great car!

The gurgling sound is the oil... Does it come from the right rear? It's normal.
Not sure about your foglight switch question... Is the whole button off center or does it just need to be rotated?
Different sounds for different cars and different exhausts... Hmmm... Boat... how about race car!
