That's not less than ideal.  That's sub-optimal.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Neither! Wish it was as I have a spare lump which could be raided for parts.

For whatever reason the diff's gone and the oils the gear oil dumping out. It stunk.

Forgot to say I pieced this thing back together and it ran out of fuel before I got to work
