Well, that function came in handy for me the other night.

3 guys tried to jump me in my car and rip my keys out.

But because it wasn't in park, they couldn't get the keys out, and I had my seat belt on, so they couldn't pull me out.

Once one of the guys hit me, i just turned the car on and took off.

Anyhow, yes i've looked unter there, but is it worth cutting a wire that you're not 100% on?

Happend in Bunbury, underneith son of rajab forrest car park. Walking to my car with my g/f around 1am on Sunday morning (Sat night), i hear these chicks shout out "shannon, shannon, heres the guy you wanna smash" blah blah... I hopped in my car, started to drive off. 3 Guys walk up, order me out of the car, opened my door, tried ripping me out. but i had my seatbelt on. Meanwhile one guy had turned the car off, and couldn't get the keys out.

While the other guys had me half out the door, one guy hit me and gave me a black eye. So i managed to start the car, drive to the cop shop. But it was closed, and so i called them. They advised me to go to the hospital and get a report. Then come back in the morning, because they were too busy.

So I did, I described the guys, and they knew exactly who they were.

Not until a week and a bit later, a cop calls me and lets me know one of the guys has been charged with assault. And will get back to me about the other guy who actually hit me. Nearly been 4 weeks since the incident and the cop still hasn't called me back.

The guy was after me, because i apparently did burnouts infront of his house. Which is a total load of shit.

And thats his reason. Had i been dragged out of the car, i'd still be in hospital.

Rule no 1 always lock you car doors when in the car in areas of doubt - i do this in Northbridge etc

This is the reason while central locking/ unlocking is being phased out in newer cars in europe, where pressing the button only opens the drivers door as car jackers are hoping in the passenger side as you get in.

Glad to hear you are ok and remind me not to do burnouts in Bunbury

Anyhow i like my $30 turbo timer thanks kym

My passenger door automatically locks itself after 15secs of starting the vehicle haha confuses people when they are trying to get out of my car - was under the impression that every line did this?

Ive heard that you can buy a turbo timer n boost controller in one. True or False? Just heard it off a mechanic i used to work with but ive never seen one. If i can get it in the one unit i would look at putting one in.

Well, I could of done alot of things to prevent it.

I stopped for a start, and wound down the window.

I really thought it was mistaken identity, but this guy just had it in for me, and i believe he still does. Hes assaulted 2 cops while holding up Blockbuster once. So the cops know him well. Hes not all there upstairs.

I'm still considering a restraing order aswell. But that means i gotta go to the courthouse and stand before a madistrate.

my mates R33 does this also, unsure if its a feature on all 33's, it locks the doors when it goes above 10-15km/h or so.

my alarm locks the doors when the car starts and unlocks them when it is turned off... according to the book its an anti-hijack feature.

      Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy.

      The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.

      Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
