Wow...I bet that caused a little anxiety! Tinfoil huh...I think I might try that, keep blowing wiper fuses..but I'm afraid something will catch on fire...ya think? When I was 16 years old, I used some small acme bricks stacked on one another to provide a hard surface that I could lower the control arms of my Pulsar onto, letting the car down with a jack, so that I could change the struts...had a VW Cabriolet once that had a 5 speed tranny with 5th and 3rd in-op, so I used 1st, 2nd and 4th, got 300 miles out of a tank of gas one time like that...
