This is a site by Sam Memmolo.. What a goof ball this guy is. Its embarrassing to watch his show on the weekends. I can't imagine this idiot working on my car. Some of the stupid stuff he says on TV is unbelievable...

Some years ago, Sam was a District Service Rep for SAAB cars and I was a Parts Manager in a dealership. Sam came in one day and demonstrated how to take apart a transaxle without using the factory tool (which spreads the housing, allowing the carrier to be lifted out). Using a pry bar and a hammer, the transaxle case cracked and was ruined. Sam's comment "must have been a defective casting".

the 4500 and 5500 d/max cool I saw one at the County fair. it is so roomy inside. looks to be a bit harder to work on. you should see the 7800 d/max
