hey all, im performing my civic duty of giving you all something to laugh at. took the IROC to work today to do some work, cleaned up the throttle body, and put on four new tires, and by doing so fixed my idle problem. the induction sevice i did needs a driving period afterwords to get it all out of the system, so i was drivin around the back lot at work. i stopped and put it in neutral to stomp it and rev it up and clear out the intake. only one problem, my trans 3-4 clutchpack is gone, so i only have 1st and 2nd, so the trans was not in OD like i thought, it was in 2nd. so instead of shifting into neutral, i shifted into D. and when i stomped it, i found out two things, A the engine is running much better, and B, it reallllllly sucks to park your car on top of a fence at work. especially when you get the bill. that part comes tomorrow what sucks worse, is finding out what damage is there i didnt see at night in the harsh cruel light of day

[igor@af]

Sorry to hear this man. I hope the damage is not going to cost too much.

[89IROC&RS]

lol, yeah me too. funny thing is, i took the car there so i could do alot of work to it, guess its just more of a work in progress now than it was before

Jesus christ dude. See, if you had a manual you wouldn't have had that problem. But that sucks man. Hope she's ok.

[89IROC&RS]

lmao, my dad said the same exact thing lol.

I don't think that's any worse than me. When I was a kid(about 10yrs old) my grandfather used to let me steer his car while sitting on his lap. Well, one day he asked me to go and bring his car in front of the house for him. It was a '77 Chrysler new yorker,so you could probably picture a little kid holding himself up with the steering wheel, just peeking over the dashboard enough to see the hood ornament.I had my heels dug into the floor so I could stand up while doing this, and I was nervous as hell! I backed up the car, thought I put it in "D" and proceeded to push the gas pedal. It was still in reverse! I panicked, pulled down on the lever and forgot to take my foot off the gas. I ended up putting his car into the garage before I could stop it.Trouble was, the doors were still closed . Needless to say, he didn't let me move his car by myself after that.

AHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAH........damn, i have no right to laugh, a couple years back, i ran over a dead deer layin in the middle of the highway, chopped it up really good and got the carcus tangled up into my transmition linkage, locked me in first, front of the car was covered with blood and guts, all over the windshield too, and the smell of it baking on my cat and muffler, it was quite a situation, especially since i just ate and puked it all up on the side of the road while the state trooper and county sheriff deputies laughed it up.

lmao, oh geeeezus, thanx genopsyde, i feel better now

[Vlad_Tepes]

[Zwrangler]

I gots a story for ya. A friend of mine smashed his 2000 model nissan patrol while backing out of a car spot. He hit a lamp post and casued $3300 damage to the post adn around $10000 damage to his car ;p And this was only a month after it had been out of the garage from being repaired from another accident which had cost him $25000 to fix

[Hypsi87]

I hit a snow drift in my ranger one time and the front fender fell off. ( You guys should see this truck.)

[1992RS]

I put an S-10 through an abandoned building the first time I used nitrous. good thing it wasn't my truck huh?

[89IROC&RS]

[1992RS]
