this should be funny. this is suppose to be about workin on your ride but it can be about other stuff too. ill start.

so i did the solid lifter conversion on my truck and put it all back together and couldnt get it to run. adjusted the lifters. still nothing. i checked my timing prolly 35 times, and tried 4 different distributors. still nothing. so alot of patience and like 5 days had went by. i walk out there today and find that i somehow connected two wires together that shouldnt be. i made a loop from the + of the coil to the - side of the coil. laughed pulled it apart. my baby fired up.



now its your turn. dont be embarassed everyone does it. so speak up

i was wiring up new taillights on my s10 and cut a lot of the wires in the back. got everything hooked up and went to start the truck and it wouldnt start. sat there for 30min tryin to figure out what i did wrong. finally realized that i had cut the wires for the fuel pump. god i felt stupid

stupidest mistake i have ever done, was when i was baggin my yota, we didnt get done til like 2-3am, and we have did the entire thing in 2 days, in 119 degree heat so we were exhausted, when putting my wheels back on neither of us tightened them and on my way home my truck started shaking really bad, and i heard lil thumps, and those thumps were my lugnuts hitting my under carraige i finally pulled over to see my wheels practically collapse on my truck lol good time, probly not the dumbest but up there for sure
