Central PA got lots and lots of ice. I was one of the few in my church with power...I had people hanging out all day yesterday because it was awfully cold and dark at their places.

Doing donuts causes the fluid in the pump to be pinned to one side of the pump, thus causing a dry run condition and burning out the pump. I have heard of some buick's having similar issues.

Ouch, seems i caught this too late. Just helped a local trailer his Dak to the junk yard to save from towing charges. Rolled and totaled, salvaged a few parts and sold em before the yard made their money. Dont play too much tonight, can get pretty nasty. Ive got to be a good driver due to plowing for the city[sm=devilangel.gif]
