That may be the best option. The breakfast burritos lit them up last year. They had bragged they like spicy food, and got the HOT green chili and couldn't get a cup to the water dispenser in the fridge fast enough.

Don't guess you told them water doesn't do much and that milk is the way to go huh?

When I got there this morning all the mechanics and a few guys from the club were standing around it like they were giving it last rites and I thought "Oh F...!"


The shop owner's computer was hooked to it and they were all scratching their heads. It was throwing a **** load of codes, so I just told them to see what they could do and I left. Got a call a while ago, and went to get it. One of the old guys there reached over and pulled on the plug and it just popped out. Plugged it back up and all was good.



Almost as bad as me accidentally hitting the kill switch on Ol' Blue while riding Skyline Drive and not being able to figger out why she died on me until I noticed it was in the off position after going over wires and everything else I could think of.


Click. Vroom! Roll on dumbass!

Did that a couple of years ago.

Took the battery out for the winter and of course you have to unplug the ECM. Put the battery back in in the spring and it wouldn't start. Checked everything, talked to my buddy the mechanic who had no idea! Went home and saw it not tight. Locked it down and away I go!

You know the type...young and know it all, right? Guess I can be a bit ornery like those 2 youngsters. It was fun for me to watch and they got to learn the hard way that hot sauce and chili are different.
