zomg so lucky

[lil_dcb7]

I went and popped the hood to check my oil, and there sitting on the passenger headlight was a socket wrench with a 10mm socket.. so lucky it didn't fall off at some point, i must have left it in there last time I was working on the car..

thats it?

One once left an aresol can of berry man's carb spray on this big ass section where my intake box used to be. I drove out of my drive way and down the street, and all of a sudden i hear this horrific metallic clanking sound. I immediately pull over, shut the car off and open the hood and the can is all beat to shit, pinned against my radiator fan and front bottom sway bar.

Im just glad that fucking can didnt explode.

haha, get this!

i was working on my car before a meet. at the meet a few days later, i sold an ECU to chrisisiced who wanted to install it, but nobody had a 10mm socket... i forget who it was, but somebody noticed my car, and pulled a lonely 10mm deep socket out from above my headlight.

that really came in handy.

well this 10mm socket was still on the wrench... and was under there for about a month.. that means I was hauling ass around town for a month with a socket and wrench sitting on top of my headlight..

lucky I didn't lose it since it was part of the only COMPLETE socket set we have a the moment. we have lots of socket sets but most of them are just like dumped in random bins and stuff so finding the socket you want and a wrench is difficult.. although I have been thinking about getting one of those little cheapy socket sets that has just a few sockets and a wrench and leaving that in my car so I have a socket set with me at all times. I already carry some screwdrivers and an emergency air pump and a empty 1 gallon gas can..

take no chances mates..


and actually the worst thing I left under my hood was a 10mm socket, a funnel, some paper towels, and a voltage meter. but they were only under there for a couple hours, and the car was not moving since it wasn't running at the time.
