I heard this story a while ago, when the British tanks ceramic clutch plates got contaminated with oilthe mechanic used washing machine powder or baking soda and cooked it until it absorbed all the soaked oil, i probably wrong i some of the details. ________________________________________ French military victories?Did you mean French military defeats? |

I like it, go to hassle of removing the clutch from a big tank and save some money on a new clutch, sounds like it was run by the local council.________________________________________ andrew315rawson@live.co.ukMoonstone phase 7 gti6 My Project thread: http://www.306gti6.com/forum/showthread.php?id=119992&page=1 |

The British army was very cheap or poor those days, they gave crappy notorious Stens to the Heidrich assassins,that stuck in the event without even one bullet shot. ________________________________________ French military victories?Did you mean French military defeats? |

Logistics was a nightmare in the desert, mostly why Rommel was unsuccessful.________________________________________ Less than 24 hours to go! |
