Hmm, It�s probably to stop the idiot in the car that�s being towed from
trying to jump start  :-)
And since that idiot will be me - well not anymore since I�ve got an I4 but
anyway - I would not be too concerned with that advice ......
Chances are that the wire will remain disconnected when the Vanagon�s left
by the mecanic and then you�ll get a " Fixed, $200 thank you " message from
a guy that only hooked up the cable you removed
