I don't know close enough: Holy poo poo. I'm not the only one who's ever had to deal with this. My daughter had a pet snake that got loose in her boyfriend's car on the drive from Denton To Houston. It crawled behind the heater core and died. $600 drat dollars to pull the entire dash and get the stupid thing out.

Do snakes just crawl into things and die all the time?

Around here a snake crawling out of the vents while a guy was driving made the news recently. Was just a small harmless one tho.

PhoenixWing posted:Shop compressor made a loud bang today I've always wondered what the damage would be if that happened to me. Is there compressor oil everywhere? Did bits of shrapnel lodge themselves in nearby cars/people? Did the motor continue to spin, flinging bits and pieces everywhere until someone snuck up to it and pulled the plug? I have to know!

GTi_guy posted:A truck hit the overhead structural steel on a local bridge today. So I'm super late to this one, but I actually knew the guy who owned that trucking 'company', not sure if he was driving or one of his workers Worst driver I have ever known, I actually refused to have him drive while I was working there, written statement to the boss and everything. He managed a ding or scuff almost daily while driving downtown Toronto, and at least 1 ticket while I was with him. Of course it would make perfect sense after he got fired, that he'd start up a trucking company, give your longest most unwieldy vehicle to your worst driver  For Content: Real AMG rim, and the nasty pothole that did it in

Small amount of oil came out the side, no fiery shrapnel though, just some bits of metal on the floor around it. It surprisingly still ran, and continued flicking little droplets of oil out the side of the case until we unplugged it.

Fortunately, it died when he was on his way back, just down the road, so I was able to tow it into its spot with my 240, where it's sat for months because wasps immediately made themselves at home. got the wasps out and the timing cover off today.

Did he mention anything about said Frenchmen having undone collars and little whirlwinds above their heads?

Now if that isn't the classiest repair manual I've ever seen, I don't know what is. How on earth do you get parts to repair one of those? I can't imagine you can go to O'Reillys or Napa and order a spare set of pistons...
