Reversing
This evening after walking the Dog I ended up on top of a huge pile of earth on a building site...reason being my Daughter (11) thinks the G and off roading are un-cool and I like to annoy her :twisted: She did get cross stuck on the top of the pile and the Police Helicopter coming over to have a look...hey maybe we will star on Police Camera Action :lol: :lol:
Any way the only way down is to reverse, but I could not engage reverse without stalling got down OK just on the brakes.
Question is what's the trick to this :? :?
With the engine off put it in to reverse let clutch out and turn over engine on the starter. Engine will start and you will decend under control.
PS put it in low range
very useful tip russ :wink:
No prob's, same technique can be used in one of the most dangerous situations.
Where you have a failed accent on a steep slippery hill and you have managed to stall the engine. Get that wrong and you can have an uncontrolled decent in neutral or relying on the brakes which will probably end in tears!!
humm.... drop of oil and a wipe with a damp rag........
so what are you going to do for your g then!!!!!
Thanks that's real useful info
