If this guy did this, this is truly one of the dumbest things that I’ve ever heard.
…
A friend who does honda stuff told me i should clean my engine bay sometimes, that itll keep it looking nice. So i decided to tackle it this morning. I went out to autozone and got a jug of simple green degreaser put it in a spray bottle. He told me to get it on EVERYTHING to completely cover anything that might be dirty with it. So i did, i got all over the turbo, the block, sides of the engine bay and i even figured id clean the pistons off too so i pulled my spark plugs and sprayed it down into each cylinder, i figure if they got any carbon on them this should take care of it.
I left it for about 30 minutes to let it soak, break everything down. came back and got a pressure washer and hosed it all off. Once all the simple green was done i put the spark plugs back in and reconnected the wires and everything but now the car wont start. First time i tried it made this awful awful knocking noise now it wont even turn over. Could i have mest up the electronics with the water? he didn’t tell me to cover anything and he wont be back in town for a week. Any help is appreciated.
well…heres one for you…my aunt’s fiancee (Michael) was over a guys house & the guy was adding oil to a car & kept filling it up intil it got to the top???
micheal said he was like what are you doing that way too much & the guy said he was wondered why it was taking so much oil.
i was in a parking lot behind my buddy’s house when some huge black guy in a metro rolled into it… car was smoking and bucking, white smoke… stops the car and there is just coolant pouring out of it…
my buddy and i offered to fill up his rad with water so he could leave and he insisted it was the oil… we kept telling him otherwise and showed him the coolant and he kept responding, " i think it’s the oyyee" i’m like, “dude, that’ scoolant… . it’s green” … he’sl ike “i think it’s the oyyee” … so we let him pour in some oil and start a drive a car with a bone dry radiator… :dunno:
a friend of mine, black guy, sold his caprice to another black guy. He asked why the oil was a milky color, my friend’s responce : “its that special racing oil”
Like the kid on SRT’s forums that couldn’t get the oil drain plug loose so he decided to spin the filter off and run the car for a little until oil quit comming out. Insisted that he wasn’t about to let a stuck drain plug beat him.
not on the maintenence topic, but still stupidity…
I was pumping gas and a woman drives up & runs into the gas pump…the other side of the one i’m using…i was like WTF…
that might be one of the last things i would want to run into.
