I don't believe in bobbinas 
I think it's much more bullshit than the Holy Graal 

>I should know, I was given a fiat and yet I do not drive AT ALL to this day.

fiat? fantastic iumiduu automobile tup? i don't believe in cars anymore 

however, it's that simple: take the key. insert the key into the biella, turn the key, let the engine run for a minute or twenty.. just to give it time to get warm, then pull down the gasoline pedal, pull the friction, connect the driving speed to the friction(use a thread if you wish).. start over and you'll be where you don't want to be.. by the way today it's my birthday.. i'm 2121, though i don't feel like that
and..

if yet you can't start your engine, set the car on fire, wait a minute or two, take the car, put it in front of me, put away the engine for better future use, dig the car half its height in your yard(or backyard, but it's better to dig it in the frontyard for the others to watch) 
use painting colors as you wish color your car as you wish , threat it as you want, use darkness if you don't want to use colors.. 
that's a real artwork for you house.. and almost free 

you can also convert your car into whatever you want.. you are able to do.. in example: you can fill the car with water and put fishes in it.. use the engine as a fan.. for hot days.. even as a secret document cutter, and to make faboulous ground thrembling effects for your visitors' to joy.. simulated earthquakes(fix the engine on the ground, then put some props connected to the biella.. to something like that, and the props should be going up and down hitting the ground
