no the write up is free u just have to be an ebay member to get it
You can be a member of this forum, GET THE SAME ARTICLE (last time I looked it was still in the WiKi) and not have to be a member of eBay. Basically, the person who posted the COPYRIGHTED article STOLE it. But since I never charged for it, and never wanted to, I have no cause for damages. Still it would be nice if the copyright notice and author (me) had been a part of the article. Was it?
The only people I have authorized to use the articles I wrote are:

Wabash Ford a.k.a. The Powerstroke Shop
I did get a query a year ago from someone who was buying the kits from the Powerstroke Shop, adding an outrageous markup, and then selling them on eBay. He wanted to print up the article and include it in every shipment. I did tell him he could reference my website or this forum. I guess he decided that he just wanted to ignore my restrictions.
Sorry if this became too much of a rant. I just don't like work that I put time and effort into being passed off as someone else's intellectual property. I DO write for hire, but that article was ORIGINALLY for the members of Superdutydiesel.com. If you go to The Powerstroke Shop website, you will see the instruction link is a pointer to my website. That way I can change the article in ONE place and it's done.
But I have too many other things raising my blood pressure and keeping me awake at night. If you found the article useful, it fulfilled my reasons for writing it. Enjoy.
