      Well, the Little Jack, though I often call him Jack or Jackie. :3 He's named after a pirate ship in an old RPG, Skies of Arcadia, which was a small, older, boxy, fast little thing that opponents always underestimated the maneuverability of. I found it fitting. :3

      (I'm a geek that way. Bonus points, the theme song from the orchestrated soundtrack for the ship... fits the car.)

      And thanks. :3

        You may like my new name for my 90L+, I have decided to call him Bruce due to his Silver color and the fact I can't call him Badastiva to my Mom without felling guilty.

          The little woman said she saw Bruce the other day at Advanced.

            Cool, she should have dropped by. I would like to see another Festiva in prime condition now that I am not ashamed of my own.

            And, uh, it;s Advance Auto Parts. No 'd'. Sorry, pet pev.

                If your festiva runs out when it reads a 1/4 or an 1/8 you may be able to open the tank up and bend the float sensor arm to adjust it.

                  I just got my 3 year pin on the 8th. Before this job I never held one for more than 6 months. I love being behind the counter, I am a HASM now and hate it. Politics suck, I just want to help people get there cars running. Ah well, I go were the money is.

                  No, the needle was on E, I was just used the my larger gauge in the 88 and over estimated how much fuel I had left. The gauge works perfect. E means E.
