Ie, if it is a 'non mechanical linkage' (rope, chain, strap etc) then the towed...

Yep, very big boxes. I had the hopes of picking mine up with a town car thinking two blokes could lift it in and out of the boot. Thank god it got a flatty and I borrowed a mates van for it. 200km...

Yeah I just suffered the same thing.... oil seal in turbo blew and oil blew through the intake. Engine very quickly climbed to 3500 and with my foot on the brake I pulled into the nearest drive way...

Yeah there is heaps of gas. When you say checked the fuse corectly.. i pulled it out, the wire was still intact and i could get current across it. so stuck it back in

yes there are 9 reindeer - untill they come to my house, then there will be 9 dead reindeer and one jolly fat man sleeping with the fishies
