Body Damage is Cool
I have decided to sell my $40.000 worth of Snapon and Mac hand tools. I come to this decision, after spending over $300 for a throttle body, IAC, and TPS for the corvette. This spending occured before I found the under dash cover had fallen onto the gas pedal, not letting the throttle return to idle. This keeping the idle at 1500, instead of 900. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />.... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/oink.gif" alt="" /> Still keeping the gun out of my mouth <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />

No comment....

I quit doing my own oil changes after pouring in 5 quarts and seeing nothing register on the dipstick, happen to look down at a puddle of oil spreading out under the jeep....

Maybe you should sell those spare parts instead? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Btw, cost of those parts for my mitsu would have been quite a bit more so don't feel too bad. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cyclops.gif" alt="" />

One time, I poured 5 quarts of oil on the ground, too.

Another time, I used the engine oil pump to do it (forgot to install the oil filter).

Once, I couldn't get a car to go into gear after a transmission service. It was my car, and I freaked. Then I found the new filter still laying on the bench... DOH!

I did the same thing again, but remembered before the car came down off the lift, so that one almost doesn't count.

Then there were the fires...
