    **Yes, I know that Bable Fish is often wrong... it was just for fun**
    You're correct... there are several ways of saying it. Just like in English...

    Good for me? I don't care what your avatar is/isn't. I was just trying to help clarify things...

    PS: Treiben does not translate to "float" unless you're specifically referring to flotsam. Schweben or schwimmen are the proper translations, depending on whether we are talking about air or water.

    Welcome, Aku!

    Don't mind these other guys; they can be a little touchy...
    ...or touchy-feely, depending on that last lap time.

    As to those other things, no idea what Beano's name means. My vote goes to the 'stored in boxes' translation...
    10W30 Quaker State in there right now, to be replaced this coming weekend with...something. OE filters (I just bought them in bulk...10-pack, baby!) with extra washers for the drain plug.
    I believe there's a Panasonic battery hiding in the trunk at the moment, but it's not something I've actively inspected lately. I just know it works.
    '90 "LE" available for purchase soon
