NO starter? NO hill? Here's "Plan C" in 45 seconds

I guess I cant start my car. I don't own a pair of gloves.

Also, nothing said about using a choke to crank a cold engine?
 
Not recommended to grasp the crank in that manner. Proper, safe, way is to use 1 hand with all fingers and thumb on the same side of the handle. Why? Because if the engine kicks back, a thumb and/or arm can be broken!
 
whats with the gloves?

they make you feel like a real race car driver!

cool beans..........
 
Well, I too wear gloves driving my A. They are white white and the person behind me can see them well when I am signalling for a turn. Especially true when driving is decreased light.
 
Sorry, but white gloves or not. 99.9% of the people when you stick your arm out think they are being waved at, and most will wave back.

Sad but true. Follow someone someday and observe what happens when they stick their arm out to give directions.

The only people that seem to know what hand signals are, are bikers and teenagers.

My son took his driving test a few years ago and that is one of the things the inspector asks before you start the driving portion of the test (in California anyway). Whether they actually use them or not is a different question... :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
