Several subs had to have the things replaced. Was that the Fairbanks Morse engine? Whichever manufacturer it was, they were trouble with a capital "t." Wish I recalled the book that told of the problem or the submarine it was about but I'm drawing a blank right now. __________________ Sub Skipper's Bag of Tricks, Slightly Subnuclear Mk 14 & Cutie, Slightly Subnuclear Deck Gun, EZPlot 2.0, TMOPlot, TMOKeys, SH4CMS
