How do I know if I have LSD on my G50?

How do I determine if my 88 Carrera has LSD?

jack the rear of the car up, put it in gear and turn one of the rear wheels with your hand. If the other rear wheel moves in the opposite direction to the one you're moving with your hand you DO NOT have LSD.

Jack the car so that both rear wheels are off the ground.
Put it in neutral.
Turn one wheel with your hands.
If the other wheel turns in the same direction, you have LSD.
If it turns in the oposite direction, you don't.

Go out on a lonely stretch of road and see if you can lay two rubber strips I test mine now and then...

I'd probably skip that test. Spawned from hell wheel hop will likely follow.
