Yes, it splashed all over the bottom of the engine and onto the exhaust and eventually caught fire. I drove it 2 blocks and it was smoking pretty good by the time I got to her house. I offered because she couldn't even turn the wheel and I didn't want her to pay for a tow for two blocks.

When you get ready to do your hubs, you can have mine.

Send me a PM with a shipping address, or you can swing by some day and pick it up.

With a sergeant for a father its obvious that the PD was a way of life for the family. An allegation like that could mean the end of a career, even if innocent. Perhaps that was the stressor.

Not saying he didnt do what he was accused of, but innocent until proven guilty.

Morning all,

I hope you have a terrific Tuesday.

Mine started out watching my husband running around with his head cut off this morning, trying to find the jumper cables to start the BIG truck before work. Maybe if he had put them away after the last time he had used them, he would've known where they were. Actually, I put them away in the shed after he had left them laying out on the ground. He couldn't find them were he had left them, so I told him where I had put them. Poor guy, I swear, today is not his day! He was forgetting or misplacing everything.

He would be an interesting guy to share a flight with. Just don't forget to respond in the form of a question.
