Got home from a business trip yesterday, hadn’t run the 505 in a week and it had 2 days of heavy rain soaking it, no start. It was parked in a spot I couldn’t park in overnight on Tuesdays, I pushed it out into the street I could park on (downhill), but which had a restriction of 1 hour during the day today. Almost caught and ran this morning, but no go again. I just pushed it uphill back to the side street where I wont catch a ticket all by myself. I need either A. more exercise or B. more exercise pushing cars around. Also, the 505 has finally been plagued with a no start. Dammit. Ah well

With all those Jeeps and French cars you’re bound to get plenty of exercise.

Counterpoint: French cars are by no means all lumpy. A Renault Alliance weighs about right at a ton, and pushing it around is pretty much the easiest thing ever.

I did something similar in my younger years, got a concussion.

I’m not sure you know what the word easy means.

Well, okay: easiest is telling a pair of five year olds to push it. It rolls when you so much as *lean* on it. Something accomplished while sort of relaxing is easy: definitionally.

the uphill hurts.

I push the montego around solo all the time, but it’s all flat out here. It’s surprisingly light.

Well that’s a shitty welcome back. At least your bitchin’ new starter works, right?

oh yeah spins it over like a champ. Fuel is not the problem, spark looks to be the case. Lame

Does the ECM get wet on these if the windshield leaks?

Oh like an Audi 5000? I actually don’t know where the ECM lives on an XN6, but I believe in the gen 2 they are in a susceptible spot

Yeah, or any 80’s BMW was my first thought.

Mercedes of the era and their beaucoup engineering bucks solved that out of the box
