    Got my Porta-Power as I was walking out the door yesterday to go to work, had planned to use it today but, I guess it will have to wait, I bought a car last night at work, seems this young lady's car broke down on her when she was on her way to the resort I work at, so I bought it from her, now I gotta go to Mobile Al. and get it, it's (now don't laugh) a 2001 Pontiac Aztek, the very same kind of car I am driving as my daily now, she saw me driving mine and asked if I wanted another, sure I do! don't worry she is not stranded, she is there with her parents, I am giving her $400.00 for it and returning her clothes that she left in it.

    It looks like the casting was defective....................a lot of graining (crystallization) suggests shrinkage in the material during the cooling process.........IMHO
    Good Luck on your tests!
