That’s amazing. You’re on a roll today – first sewage sucking, now this. đ
I have always been in awe of the power of water. I recall a time when I was young that I could actually pee over a parked car.
Imagine that happening at night and unsuspecting driver is cruising down the road.
The Power of Alcohol
#4 – Good one Jag! I recall a few alcohol evenings where I woke up the next morning and looking over at the chick like it was the horses head in Godfather.
Impressive. But nothing compared to the “power of cheese”.
OLD river bed, FILLED in, and Culvert pipe PLUGGED UP, or not BIG enough…
Don’t under-estimate the involvement of “the power of gravity” and “the power of stupidity” involved here.
And, I can smell a $10M new bridge project coming via Fed pork following Mutha Nature’s little reminder who actually runs things on Earth.
That’s a good place to put a bridge.
From “bridge to nowhere” to “no, where’s the bridge?”
“And SPLASH in the engine will STOP the engine..”
I learnt that one the ÂŁ4,000 way …. not only does it stop the engine, it’ll also bend the cam-rod and render the engine pretty much useless …
#12 Dallas said, From âbridge to nowhereâ to âno, whereâs the bridge?â
Now THAT’S FUNNY!!!
I guess someone forgot the rebar?

YEP,
take a HOT engine and splash COLD water on it…
with the NEW Aluminum and CAST engines…the odds are you just BROKE something..
At least Killed the electrical.
If you SNORTED ANY water into the engine… It will cost you ALOT, just to clean it out, if not replace the engine.
Those idiots buried a culvert, covered it with dirt and paved over it. Cripes.
#17 and then they realized they parked on the other side.
The culvet floated. When a steel culvert floats it isn’t full of water. Had to be plugged or full of debris that floats.
I’m shocked nobody drove off in it.
ECA:
If my case hot and cold and electricals had nothing to do with it. Take an air intake valve, splash a drop of water into it, it sucked into the pistol, the pistol compresses, ignites the diesel leaving an empty pistol with the small exception of a ball of vapour which has nowhere to escape, thus the full force of finely tuned pistol gets absorbed the rod on top of the piston, which bends and leaves your engine fucked. In some countries (like anywhere in Africa), you could probably just replace the piston, but with the costs of mechanics in the UK its cheaper to replace the whole damn engine!
-Ben.
PBJ,
I know that one…
USED to be you could get parts and FIX your own car, NOW you cant afford then RETAIL, unles you hit the JUNK YARDS and find the EXACT SAME engine..
Another fine example of Haliburton Engineering.
