Hi Bill,

I didn't have o work that hard to make mine leak. It started on it's own
about 10 or 20 minutes after returnin from a drive. I was very lucky that I
discovered it right away. My garage is the bottom floor of my house and the
gas furnace and gas water heater were only 15-20 feet away. Could have been
a major diaster. I had to jack op the front of the car to make it stop.
