I forgot that I had my phone pointing at the f uel pressure gauge so I could record the measurement when cranking. The pressure was enough to basically blow all the fittings apart even with multiple hose clamps, and a fountain of gas shot straight up 

There was 8 more minutes recorded of sighing, laughing, and cursing.

Also, day 5 and no problems

“Watch the language”

I heard a muffled “shit” and that was it. If I posted a video of my wrenching Id get banned from Oppo, YouTube, and the internet. I could make a sailor blush.

But... day 5 and no issues . Good job!!!

I poked a hole in the Miata’s radiator once trying to cut a zip tie with a utility knife.

absolutely . my last two adventures have ended with fuck, i’ll just bring it to the shop. #1 was destroyed studs in the catalytic converter and the second was some solenoid that was beyond my diagnostic abilities.

i did an oil change and didn;t notice the o-ring from the old oil filter stuck to the car. I turned it over and looked under and saw a black waterfall

A couple weeks ago I drained my oil all over my floor because the pan had a stupid plug in the middle. I would have much rather wiped up fuel. I thought it was up and it wasn't and lots of bad words were said. We all screw up wrenching just learn from your mistakes and rip that plug out for good so you can't make the same mistake twice or whatever the applicable equivalent is in your case.

My dad asked me to grease his model A. What i didn’t know was the the back plate of the drum goes to the bearing. i put @20 pumps waiting for it to pop out, and learned how to dismantle a drum.
