The Official Stupid Things You've Done to Your Car Thread!
#27
was trying to replace the fuel filter in the del sol and didn't have the correct wrench, therefore stripping the nut. It had loosened enough but I couldn't tighten it back down. i tried to start the car and gas sprayed all over the place. had to get it towed to a shop...


was trying to replace rear calipers on my friend's E30 (in the early stages of the build) and spend an hour banging on them with a hammer trying to get them off... finally called Chan who reminded me of the parking brake I probably left on... man that was dumb, then they fell right off.


replaced the oil pan on the BMW and had to remove a ton of the front suspension, cross member, etc to drop the pan. In the process I removed the engine ground wire and then spent 2 weeks trying to figure out why it didn't start... wow

have removed an engine from a convertible E30 and a friend's integra without an engine hoist- using various methods of hoisting the engine up out of the car or pulling out with a truck or jeep.
