Lighting FAIL
So yesterday, my dad and I decided to completely tear threw the hangar and get rid of all the shit that we don't need. Washing the walls and the floors, sweeping and organizing, etc..
Any way, about 7 hours later, the shit looks great! We washed all the cars and I gave the 97 Viper a nice coat of hard wax, my truck is completely mexican packed with all the shit we are throwing away, all the tools and equipment are nicely stowed away in their proper places. Everything went very, very well. Until....my dad walks in my room and says, "Hey check out what I did." I walk out into the hangar and he tells me he fixed all the lights....except one. I look at the fixture over the miata and see a bulb missing. I look down and I see a smashed flourescent light in my engine bay :facepalm: It was an accident but, a very time consuming clean up. I went over the entire car and engine bay with a shop vac and i'm sure I got most of it out. The biggest problem was that I was in the middle of changing the oil restrictor and pan fitting, so the turbo, wastagate and all the other shit was half way off and the glass got everywhere!!! Please share your favorite FAIL stories. |

You know... after looking it up, I can't find a "correct" way to spell it... half the time "e" is used, the other half "a" is used. Oh fuck it....that's what I get for having 6 TVs radiating my brain for 8 hours a day :( (Does that count as my fail story of the day?) |
I installed the intake manifold gasket backwards... pissed coolant out all over the floor with ICANTDRIVE55 and one of his boys watching the first time I met them... really cemented my rep.

http://jugrnot.com/IMG_6176.jpg Got kinda lucky. 30psi spike on a stock 2.3L ford Lima.. :rofl: Most of the compression piston ring were missing. Theres a few pieces of it that were stuck in the CAST IRON CYLINDER HEAD, and a few can be seen in the face of the piston... Cracked the piston from face to skirt completely through!! More fail soon to come when I get a turbo on the miata... haha |
