Pam and I jumped out of the car to put a rock .under the back wheel (we were going up hill). It Was then that we discovered ,that the engine was hanging down at the back! Eventually, some tante after the ignition, .was turned off, the engine stopped turning over. That was as far as I got with this letter on March 2, when we were stranded on the Chinese road.
