This Poll is at the request of Ghostrider..

Think it is a good idea and worth saving for historical and evidence purposes.

This poll is not accurate thus far, as people are not voting. I went back thru ALL the Head/Valve posts to check this as I recalled many posts on this issue when I 1st came here. The 3 votes that are on the poll now just didn't seem accurate. (Or, did I interpret it incorrectly?)

13 different people had posted with the problem!

They are as follows: xroperx, btstyx, beachman, H3Gal, BabyMonsterH3, LadyDi, tweety bird, TonyM315, Z, AlanH3, branstone, mjlemon, LawWyfe

And may you and everyone else continue to have no problems! I am not jumping on the bandwagon here and implying that these are bad vehicles nor that everyone will...(I LOVE mine!) But, this is not a problem to sneeze at either for those of us who have encountered it well as the great numbers of others who have. Here's to NO MORE head jobs! <cheers!> Its game night! GOOOO GATORS!!!! LOL

Oh I'm sure they'll show up sooner or later to cast their vote...But it does prove a point, that some of these peeps were only here to complain.

I think the point is that only 13 out of 1300 had problems so it is not real common of a problem. Hope I am right.

We do not have enough data to make an usable model.

everybody being a member here should answer because then, with about 500 answers we will built a proper model that could be used by the ones having problems..... or got the proof that their problem was due to an external factor... bad luck, mods, driving etc..

so please fellow forum members lets try to help!!
