The "burnout" method is not accurate or reliable.

If you want to know the truth, and not just practice some self-abuse, take the cover off and look. It's the only way to know for sure.

lift the car and spin one of the rear wheels, if they both spin the same way, you have a posi. if they spin opposite directions it is an open diff.
