TRNW-2: 9T65

[Scott Kleinlein]

Not saying you should or shouldn't but I just did one with 140k on the
clock. Chain stretch broke the plastic baffle into a bunch of pieces that
ended up in the filter resulting in a no move. Maybe it's going to be a
pattern failure maybe not unfortunately we just don't have enough time with
these yet. It's the customers gamble in my opinion. Glad it worked out for
you though.
