It helps to not have an auto transmission as well. My C900's have autos so if I had to start them with a dead battery, assuming there isn't something else wrong electrical, I can't push-start the cars! Unless it's down a very long steep hill but I bet the torque converter would self-destruct with so much reverse power being applied to it. 8-) Craig. -- Craig's Saab C900 Page --> http://nospam/~c900 Sydney, NSW Australia Craig's Saab C900 Workshop -- For all Saab C900 Enthusiasts world-wide! http://www.nospam.net http://www.nospam c900nospam.apana.org.au Come and explore our site, and check out our web-forums, mailing list, etc.
