Damn! When I found out you could no langer push-start an automatic, I was pissed. I still am. Can you still push-start manuals or do you have to get a note from the doctor for that too? -- Cheers, Bev ********************************************* Not all cultures are equal.

I could practice until the rest of the car wore out and I still wouldn't be coordinated enough to do that. > I blew the slave cylinder on my F150 several years ago out in the > boonies.

Baby son drove my broken-clutch-cable motorcycle through Portland rush-hour traffic to get to a shop that had a replacement cable.

If the battery is dead enough, you can only push-start a manual if you can push it fast enough for the alternator to self-energize. So you'll have to be quite healthy :-) -- The problem with socialism is there's always someone with less ability and more need.
