been driving me nuts - what is this 80's movie

[Sinistral]

What I remember is:

A little boy moves to a new house, he isn't the main character. He wants to drive around the block on his pedal car, but seems to get stopped by a different obstacle every time he goes around.

In the end he uses a steak to divert a dog, and then squirts a bully with his urine filled water gun...

Any ideas?

I didn't know what it was but with some exploring on IMDb I believe the film you're after is 'The Boy Who Could Fly'. It seems Fred Savage is the boy in question.

No problem! I'm surprised how easily I found it.

Using your description, I searched for 'water-gun' under Keywords in IMDb. I then sorted the results by release date so I could quickly see 80s movies. Looked up a few results and quickly found what you described in a message board post.

I think I might check the film out, it seems like a typical 80s classic, my kind of film ;D
