It also needs a tune up... I left the old plugs in the junkyard engine, although they did look pretty good.

On the plus side, you can't get your finger off the key before the engine is started, and it purrs quietly (when it's idling correctly). The car itself makes more noise than the engine does, so you can't hear the engine while cruising at all... that sucks for EOC and P&G though (which only applies to me, since wifey doesn't have the experience to even try it, nor would she), because it's hard to tell when the engine started (even though I know it only takes a tap on the key).

I'd like to think that people might open their eyes at some point... instead, I find it more and more likely that I'll just close mine.
