Take a connector, preferably on the power supply. Disconnect it. Barely Plug it back in at an angle.

The low surface area of the connection will heat up and hopefully arc and melt/burn good or just stop working.

It will seem like a vibration problem or shoddy manufacturing.

I concur. Or figure out how to rig something to fall where it will cause a short, like a metal-barrel pen over a partially unplugged power connector. Shorts and vibration damage are relatively normal for aging equipment.

Or find any fans that are still working and jam them up so things overheat sooner.

poo poo man, human hair, pet hair, and cigarette residue were the worst things I would find inside computers when I worked retail. I told you about the time the gutterpunk versions of Fred and Carrie from Portlandia came into my shop with a computer that reeked so badly of nicotine gunk that I had to wear a respirator, gloves, and use a fume extractor to deal with it, yeah? There was a good 1/4" of brown gunk that also contained *hair covering every surface. I swapped out every fan and scrubbed the loving thing with rubbing alcohol inside and out. When they came back, they wanted help hauling it to their car, and I half panicked and sent the new guy out to deal with it. I don't feel bad.

Have I mentioned how much better corporate IT is?

Noakes was a legend.

quote:

In another dangerous stunt Noakes was asked to hurl himself down the Cresta Run bobsleigh, which resulted in him being concussed and heavily bruised.
And in true style, he finished the descent on his backside.

If that wasn't enough humiliation for him, on the programme he was asked to lower his trousers to reveal the large bruise, but happened to be wearing his wife's knickers.
He claimed he put them on in the dark by mistake...
He recalled: "I'd only got back the day before and said to the wife, 'Have you got some clean knickers?'
"It was early morning and I put them on in the dark. When I unzipped my trousers live on air, I thought, 'I've got my wife's black lace knickers on!'"

So they knocked out a support column for a lift, which they then situated so that walking on the far side of it would have you walking on a 1" strip of concrete next to the pit? Which looks suspiciously like a swimming pool, since I've never seen an auto shop pit lined with anything but concrete and grime.

I've seen tiled pits before, although it may have fallen out of fashion

I once worked in an office that didn't know where to put me, and subsequently shoved me into a corner next to the Shredmaster 2750, which was a shredder the size of a Volkswagen Sirocco and sounded like a Volkswagen Sirocco with a poo poo muffler. Every few weeks, they'd send in an intern and a pallet of poo poo to shred, and I'd have to sit and listen to that thing for half a day or longer.

Point being, I wish I could build a time machine and then go back in time to mod the loving Shredmaster 4350.
