[V8] Hot "no start" in crowded ferry line

[Ed Kellock]

Though overall it is an inconvenient situation, I rather enjoy when there
are people watching.

Well, the seemingly flawless 5-speed not only lost the Hydraulic pump  
a few weeks ago, but got the hot "no start" in lane 4 of a very  
crowded ferry line(10 lines).  Since they board 2 lines at a time w/  
20-30(?) cars in a line, I had some people squirming behind me......I  
decided to try and push start it, and a few jumped in to help, and it  
sparked right up.....(yeah manual tranny)....That was last week, and  
it's gotten logarithmically worse, with the "cold water method"  
working every time.(ferry worker laughed....).  I'm tempted to  
pillage the basically unused ones off the still sitting Lago car, but  
plan on trying out those Ebay 5000 ones.  Anyway, without this list,  
I'd have never thought to pour cold water into an odd place on my  
car, and have it start to everyone's amazement.....Wouldn't trade it  
for the world....Tom _______________________________________________
