Why AUTOs can be dangerous

  1. So am I correct in understanding if I disconnect the battery and roll my old
    carby vehicle down a long hill it won't start?

    The wife's been getting sick to death of my smart arse quips lately, and
    told me to get back on the net :)

    Regards,

  4. If it does, it'll probably go right ahead and blow the shit out of the
    alternator diode pack - just to ensure you are punished suitably for the
    maltreatment of the poor dear.

    Yep, not a hope in hell unless you have a generator instead of an alternator
    possibly.

    Nope, supposedly prevents prostate cancer so that is a bonus. TAFE teaches
    mostly irrelevant old school shite.
    Nice theory, shame that in practical terms it just ain't gonna happen.

    were you hoping she meant "nest" not "net"?

    cheers

    No, she very definitely meant "Net". No chance of any nesting for quite some
    time :)
