A friend's B*g engine blew up in a cloud of blue smoke on the motorway, losing all the oil. They called out the AA (car breakdown club), and the "repair" man looked in the front for an engine, and then said it must have run out of water and blown the head gasket. My friends were rolling about on the road at this point through laughing so much! Maybe the guy had never seen a Beetle before; they are incredibly rare after all(?!). NOT! They did persuade him to tow the car home, where we stripped the engine and found several broken piston rings. We never did find the head gasket, though.......! ------------------------------------------------------------------- Unsubscribe? mailto:type3-request@vwtype3.org, Subject: unsubscribe
