RECKON YOUR BELT CAME OFF?

YOU BEGAN TO OVERHEAT. AS THE WATER PUMP WAS NO LONGER BEING DRIVEN BY THE BELT

SINCE YOU WERE TRAVELING STRAIGHT---IT TOOK NO EFFORT TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL IN SMALL INCREMENTS. EVEN THOUGH THE POWER STEERING WAS NOT OPERATIONAL DUE TO THE MISSING BELT

WHEN YOU FINALLY MADE A LARGE STEERING CORRECTION, YOU FOUND OUT THAT IT WAS NON-FUNCTIONING

?

YOUR TURN
