gratitude beyond any boundaries

[briggie]

ive just had a phone call from bat 21 ,to say i was shocked is a gross understatement , quite simply i cannot believe that people would do that , it restores your faith in humankind , i was hoping for a guy / guys etc to turn up with a few spanners , and lots of oil on my road , but to be told this , is absolutely astounding , yes i am disabled , but that doesnt mean im not proud also , i honestly cannot thankyou enough , if only you knew how much this means to me , i promise that once on the road i will go to a meeting and thankyou all personally , you have also made a 54 year old man cry like a baby , i thank bat 21 for organising this amazing demonstration of kindness , and also for managing to understand my speech , but also to the many members who contributed , i am proud to be a member of such a caring club .


THIS CLUB ROCKS ! ..... buy yourselves a beer folks , i hope to be able to return the favour shortly .

sincere thanks from the heart .

ive just rung my son who is in the army , and told him what the club had done , he said to thankyou all from him also , :clap

Ok, so whats the plan with the truck now?

a) Getting it into an auto-specialist?
b) Have a go at DIY'in a drain if you think it may be overfilled
c) Trying to get some money back and getting shut?


I'm round the corner from you Briggie... if you need some help draining some of let me know - although at best I am 'amatuer'. :doh

Any experts on here who can answer the following...

1) Where to drain the ATF from - which spanner size needed
2) Is it possible to drian 'a couple of litres' or is it a case of dumping it all
3) Best way to empty it - hot/cold engine... is it possible to do on the road or does it need to be over a pit?
4) If it all needs dumping correct way to re-fill

:thumbs
