yeah i thought that all cars from factory had 1 front and 1 rear tow hook??

if its only 4kms mate then it shouldnt be too bad

but peak hour traffic would be harsh as

it does have a towhook, but its well up under the front bumper and i dont feel like removing a bumper just to tow it. I just organised a tip tow for $50, but thanks guys!

true but a car trailer cant be to expensive?

Last time i hired one i beleive it was about $100 clams + the deposit but i could be wrong....

All suburbs towing is located like 3 minutes from here, and ironically on the way to where the car has to go.

they said $55 so i reckon thats alright :(

Shit yes thats a good price i'd be jumping on board with that!

+1 for all suburbs towing

i had my car towed by all suburbs towing for 18kms

and it only cost me $66

where as another company quoted me $127

plus the driver was a champ and took great deal of care in loading and unloading the car

yeah, all suburbs towing are rad. they came out and towed my magna when i killed it in noarlunga in '07, took a great deal of care loading and unloading it, even though it was showing it a shit load of disrespect. from the middle of noarlunga to craigmore only cost 200 clams.

yeah they are very competitive in pricing and their drivers do seem to know what customer service is all about

i have used them plenty of times before and will be using them in the future

i remember when my rear left wheel came off

it took them 2 hours to load and another 2 hours to unlaod

and all while taking great care in nothing scrapes etc

    • 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. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • 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?
