DWRAT Remember
|
LOL, Thanks for the reminder.
I almost 100% forgot about it. That one F-up really did make me second guess my ability. |
Mike will never let you forget about it. He is going to be cooped up this winter and I bet he will remember all of your other mishaps. LOL
|
Careful about that. He may start remembering all of our errors and omissions.
|
Now I know what I can do this winter. Thanks guys.
Mikiec Soon to be up to my neck in snow. |
Dan- You dropped a bolt down the intake...? Oh boy- now I REALLY need to get my car fixed before Saturday, so I can make the lunch run... Guess what the topic of conversation is going to be? :p
But hey... My 97 Corvette stalled out on me one afternoon in late 2003, on my way home from a round of golf... I figured the fuel pump had died, or maybe the the map or maf sensors had gone on the fritz... But instead, this was what I found inside: http://www.digitalcorvettes.com/corv...5moorerb_3.jpg When I worked as a Tech for GM, the Engineers would document this on our test vehicles as "Unanticipated catastrophic failure of one or more primary engine components" I simply called it an "impending catastrophic credit card balance"... |
Oh the stories I could tell.
If Hershel is still around ask him about spilling the pig on the floor. Mikiec |
Robert, impressive, very impressive. Miss a shift? a few too many R's
|
No, actually I was accelerating fairly hard from a stop, in first gear, and as the engine was sweeping through 4000-4500rpm, it just stopped....
"Braaaaaaaa-------{silence}----" No bucking, no shaking, no smoke, no oil all over the road... Just dead.... It imploded. I wish I had mounted that piston on a plaque in jigsaw puzzle fashion, just like it is in that photo above- It would look good on the wall in my den. :) |
