LOL sorry.. couldn't resist.

Don't blame me if it drops parts out from underneath... It works good on RW drive rental cars...
Yeah....once! Another good reason to never buy a car that was a rental I guess.

Aim the car at a wall, pin the gas in nuetral until the engine is bumping the rev limiter. Yank it into Drive. Remember to keep your eyes closed, this is very important.

Clutch in, rev to 3g drop clutch mash gas.
That would be helpful advice if he had a manual transmission ...

I put mine on jacks and use my hand to spin the wheels. Make sure you take the emergency brake off. They wont spin well if you don't.
