hey,
Just to let you people know, never wear a watch when working on a car. My watch hit the positive side of my deep cycle optima yellow top battery and the mounting bracket that goes over the battery. so, my watch got up to about 1000 degrees F and melted shut. i cracked my finger nail trying to get it off. when i finally did i was left with a bloody finger nail and horrible 3rd degree burns of 1/2 of a watch on my wrist. no working on my lancer for a week :0( . And i was just about to put my boost controller in!!!!

 

Ouch?

 

Eww, gross...feel better though. Thanks for the tip.

 

Uhm...it's probably a good general rule of thumb to take off any jewelry and loose clothing while working on a car. Look at pit crews and mechanic, their fire suits and gear aren't baggy *** GAP jeans now are they?

 

pjal has got a point......but who besides profesionals follow saftey precations?!?!?!

 

Nice

 

That's not very good.

 

Don't disconnect both battery terminals while standing in a puddle of water that's been splashed with gasoline. Eh...yeah...what p said. You should remove any and all jewelery and dangly things (drawstrings on hooded sweatshirts if you're me) before working on the car. Things that conduct electricity are especially bad if you're holding or wearing them.

Was it a nice watch?

 

was that covered on your watch warranty?

Get well soon.

That sucks

 

yeah a $800 tag heuer 1500 professional. but lifetime warrenty with any type of damage. so i'm not worried about the watch.

 

Ish. Watch cost more than either of my computers.

 

It's just a good job your not into Bling Bling, with all those chains and rings, etc, you could have really caught some current.

 

i would pawn the watch and get some more stuff for the car!

 

i was gonna post an owned pic...but then i thought that's kinda messed up...

get well soon
