Reminds me of a story my dad told me. When he was at a automotive tech school in the 80's there was a runaway Cat diesel on a test stand. The instructor tried to stop it by putting a phone book on the intake. It sucked it in page by page. Apparently diesels will run on burnt phone books too!

You know, all my life I've been around car parts. My dad was a certified master tech, used to rebuild carbs on the kitchen table. I sort of apprenticed under him in high school, worked in a few shops, and have done all my own vehicle maintenance for 18 years. Until now I didn't know how an A/C compressor worked internally. Just one of those things you take for granted. My mind is blown.
