Alabamarama posted:I put new intercooler hoses on my Audi URS6 but neglected to reinstall one of the bolts holding the cross pipe to the front crossmember. As soon as I put my foot down it shat my turbo outlet hose and corresponding $5 t-bolt clamps all over the highway. Spent 20 minutes in a turn out area wrestling it back together enough to limp to work on zero boost. Fun times. A year or so ago I checked my motorcycle's oil at the gas station, but forgot to screw the cap back in all the way. Crankcase pressure and engine vibration ejected the cap/dipstick immediately but I didn't notice until my foot slipped off the right peg about 2 miles down the road. Lost half the total oil and drenched my boot and pant leg. I walked back to the gas station in 100 degrees wearing all my leather and found the cap ten feet away from the gas pump. Bought more oil at the AutoZone that was conveniently across the street, filled it up and had no problems other than a rear brake that didn't work for a couple of days while the oil burned off. Also, my right boot now takes a better polish than the left one and holds it longer too.

Ansith posted:I tried to install my new shift linkage on to my 944. This happened to me the other day with my motorcycle. Stuck the torque wrench on the oil drain bolt to tighten it down, cranked around until tight. Whoops, I need to turn it forwards to get it back to the position I inserted it from, because it's a tight fit. poo poo, I can't turn it forwards any further because the bolt is tight, and my torque wrench only ratchets one direction. Ended up having to take off the water pump to get the wrench back out. Durrrrrrrrrrr

RillAkBea posted:On this occasion it is a completely on point translation that says near enough exactly the same as what it says in English. The manual for my '71 Honda CL350 repeatedly refers to the regulator/rectifier unit as the "pointless regulator." It's an entirely correct term for the time, since it was a new solid-state design that didn't rely on the old vibrating-points method that was in prior use. Please remove the pointless regulator before proceeding. Do not forget to reinstall the pointless regulator on assembly.

Even beyond the safety issue, I personally don't see the appeal of blacked-out lights at all. What's wrong with red ones?
