Any Other HypoCARdriacs Out There?

I am absolutely HypoCARdriac (and also an x-Seabee). Every new clink clonk, stink stench, flutter flatter, jingle jangle, I just assume its the demise of the car. It usually keeps me up for days til I get to the bottom of the issue. Ironically, if you would've posted your worries about the flakes of metal in the oil, I would've suggested the chrome dipstick only because I've been there.
