But how did you break it in the first place , by motorbike perhaps?
No car. *An engine fell on it. Young and reckless.
* A friend undid the gearbox mount whilst I was undoing bellhousing bolts. The back of the box dropped, tilting the engine and trapping my wrist between bulkhead and engine. The resultant sudden tilt backwards and awkward angle I was in to get to bolts broke my wrist, well fractured it anyway.
