When correcting information use these guidelines:


  • If it is a typo/mispelling, delete that and type corrected information
  • If in doubt, go ahead and add more to clarify the data, but leave the original statement intact
  • If you are not sure, leave the existing text -- but add more words. For example "However this may be incorrect, here is what I had understood..."
  • If controversial, you might want to say something like "While many people think an A12 engine has 1200ccs, it is actually 1171 cc (source: 1971 Owners manual)". It is good to give sources if possible
  • If it is your opinion say it: "Although the manual says adjust the valves HOT, my experience is that COLD is fine if these figures are used..."
