On the eastern freeway Monday morning 🙁
(apart from my step dad... who didn't even realise it was me...)
I blew a spark plug! 😀 Wasn't that fun! Finally got to work at 12...... after two tow truck rides and a taxi! I love my RACV extra care!

Wah!!! Jay that's no good🙁
I've been catching the train again.....and way earlier than that with 8 am starts in the city.....
So were did they take Wolf!!!...12 noon, that's a long haul by the road and other stuff.....
I've dreaded breaking down on that freeway of a morning...even at 6.30 am the traffic is heavy!!:jesus
Obviously Wolf does not like that spark plug and spat it out!
If I still went that way I would have stopped and helped you out.
We have not had to use the Extra care yet, just the easy things like jump start and out of petrol. One day it may come in very handy, especially since we travel on long trips in the bus.
They towed me to a petrol station in doncaster... I waited for RACV man, he decided he couldn't fix it, I waited for next tow truck, tow to Volkscare, wait for taxi.

What was the verdict? Just spat the plug, or anything more sinister? All good now Yeah?
The thread was stripped in the head. Michael put in a helicoil I think.
All better now :thumb
