You popped the hood if you were looking at the engine. (A panoply of 1960's VW Bug jokes pop into my mind -- I only did around 100,000 miles in Alpines and other Rootes Group cars but I did about 600,000 miles in air-cooled VeeDubs, back in the day.) If you popped the boot and saw the engine, well, it is time to check in for some medical assistance on your meds. <he grins> Marc It is a good world for doing good deeds. -- Nathaniel the Faun _______________________________________________ tigers@autox.team.net Donate: http://www.team.net/donate.html Archive: http://www.team.net/archive Forums: http://www.team.net/forums Unsubscribe: http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/tigers/tigers-archive@autox.team.net |
