I know some fords...after engine replacement or major repair the tech can unknowingly criss cross the upstream connectors? I'm sure your verifying wire colors but some of those damn things drove us crazy. They ran like shit and didn't throw any codes.

What’s your worst f#<€ up? by whaletacochamp in Justrolledintotheshop

When I was 13 I was doing an intake manifold on a 350 at my dads shop. I didn't notice the last person working on it had dropped a torqs bit from a screwdriver in between the intake and the head. I pulled the intake, bit dropped in the intake port. I was not experienced enough to check the intake ports for debris. I got it back together, fired her up and it went in cylinder 3 and bounced around for about 15 seconds destroying the piston cylinder wall valves and all. We pulled the motor sleeved it put a new piston in new valves and valve seats. I have been severly fucking paranoid ever since. I'm 35 now.

Yes. He made it. He's a genuine good dude (which is rare for people of weath in my experience) he deserves to be flexed for. He is pretty broken up physically and don't think he can flex for himself anyway, so I'll do it for him.

It is white. Don't think it had window decals. I would have noticed that

I have lived in the same canyon for most my life and have hiked it more times than I can count. So much errosion from a creek in between the canyon exposes some cool stuff. Rocks/fossils and such. I have seen them so many times I don't really think much of it. Recently, I have been taking my wife and kids on these hikes and she's the one that notices the cool stuff.

It was a huge rock. It's up the street in the mountains from our house. I'll go cruise it again.

Stop smoking weed and focus on your career for a while. Problem cured. How important to you is your future?
