I’m 27 and have had my A for 5 years. I was president of my chapter for a year and have been on the board since. Not as active though as I once was. Makes it tough when the local club does events on weekdays, and the big national events are not friendly to those who work (unless they fly and...

Starting yesterday afternoon I have a loud hum that happens when I let off the accelerator while in any gear. I have a Borg-Warner Overdrive on my car, and what is weird is that I do not have the hum when the overdrive is engaged. I just changed transmission oil this morning, but that did...
