Word. so is this: http://www.geocities.com/chmwatson/FAQs/mbc.html reliable? It doesn't sound hard to make at all. I just don't want to waste 15 bucks and blow my car up.

Ok, I got pretty much everything to make this, but one thing the instructions didn't really specify is how stiff the spring is supposed to be. Is it better to use a stiffer spring or no?
