[crazybalhead]

a few months after I bought the Evo the windshield washer spray stopped working

I checked the water bottle in the engine bay and topped it up and still nothing, so i thought the hose kinked somewhere cause I was hearing the wizzz of the spray pump comin on when I pull the spray lever.

Well weeks passed, my windshield stayed dirty cause i didnt want to turn on the wipers dry and i kept saying I have to remove the water bottle and follow the hose to make sure its in tact.

One day i was washing the car and the place was pretty quiet. While wiping the dashboard I pulled the lever and heard the pump wizzing but I found it sounded like it was comin from somewhere else... When i followed the sound it was comin from the trunk!!!

low and behold after investigating the water bottle for the wiper was in a compartment in the trunk

the bottle I kept filling and checking was for the intercooler spray!!!!!!!!!!
DOPE!!!!

that was a humbling moment - laughed at myself for weeks!!!

HAHAHAHHAHAAA!

well on my First car I installed a Tach myself for first few days things worked good then one day I went to the car and it wont start , I checked everything after hours I realized that the wire from the tach to the coil that I ran ( The wire was not long enough so I joined it ) the Join was not insulated and it shorted on the firewall as I moved it boom it started .

Till the day I sold the car that was my only security device in the Cortina I used to pull the wire on the firewall when I parked it .

[BulletProof]

Yuh know it scary the amount of stories here with people attempting get in and drive a car while drunk/tipsy. Maybe that's the real worst "duh" factor here...

[ShaKarz]

Ok First car again when it was finished painting me and my partner was putting things back together The car was totally scraped down , we got most things back on when we decided to make a run for gas , on the way back about 2 Miles from home a heavy shower of rain came down you the white rain that you cant see sheit , so I turned on the wipers and after 3 up and down they both stopped moving we realized that we did not tighten the nuts on the wipers , so I drove home the rest of the way with my head out of the window , I reached home Totally soaked .

[Yorkshirelass]

you fellas ought to be ashamed of yourselves. AND u call me blonde hahahahahahahahahahah!! I can honestly say I have done NONE of the things you have all admitted to above, which I feel none of you would have admitted if it wasn't for Duane owning up in the first place. Well all I can say is WELL DONE and you can borrow MY bottle of peroxide anytime (once I get it back from wagonrunner )

[bOOsTmaN]

Was seriously thinking about running away from home that day.

[cacasplat3]
