I have a new trans tool I pilfered from Blue's College of Auto Voodoo, it's called a Mumbly Peg in the instructions. How did it get that name? The only Mumbly Peg I can find on Google is a type of knife throwing game. Anyone know?

Think you got us all STUMPED.

I had an aunt Peg in Llandudno,she didn't mumble.

We used to play that knife game at school in the early 70s.

You used to stand facing each other with your feet wide apart. You then took turns throwing the knife into the ground between the other persons feet. Every time the knife stuck in the ground the person who's feet it was between had to move one foot up to the knife. So that on each turn your feet were closer and closer together.

However I can't remember how you actually won this game.

I have a feeling one of you had to chicken out to loose. Or be wounded.

Or be wounded.

No reason to quit, Dave!!

yeah I know. We used to end up with our feet together but stand on the outer edges of our shoes to try and make a gap between our feet.

Of course there was always one idiot. One lad was playing in his sandals one day. After they sent him off to the hospital to have the knife removed they had a big crack down on boys carrying knives.

Same with that game where you stab the desk between your fingers. One girl went and put a compass right through her hand.

The funny bit about that was that one lad fainted when she showed him. The ambulance crew turned up, saw him out on the floor, and took him away by mistake. A teacher had to take the girl.

That's right, we used to play that knife throwing game at school, but as we had one and sixpenny pen knives from Woolworths, and we all wore good leather boots then, you could be quite brave...until you got one in the leg!

Mumbly Peg indeed, Blue's winding you up Kev!

Here you go, the mumbly peg kickstand for your motor cycle!

About sums it up Dave!

Blue's right, the old sod!

check this technical reply to a Dodge transmission query:

Sounds like the rooster tail may have gotten some slop inside the transmission and let the detent ball fall out... Pull the pan and see if there is a 3/16" ball rolling around. If so then you will need a mumbly peg to hold things in place while trying to get the rooster tail in place... I will try to find some pictures to show you what all I mean in case you have to do this. Let me know what you find.
