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.

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? 
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:
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.

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.
