you know you love working on your car when__
I somehow cut a deep chunk out of my thumb puting my car back together. I then proceeded to bleed all over the:
ex manifold
turbo
downpipe
Licp
fmic
uicp
intake tube
maf
valve cover
intake manifold
down the spark plug holes
coil packs
(this dumb cut wouldn't stop, guessing cause it was cold it gave it the "fountain" effect
)
then all over:
4 race wheels
each caliper
all the brake pads
and finally:
4 street wheels
by this time grease and dirt some oil had sealed it up. Then I went inside and scrubbed it out and added a fancy bandaid!
Happy Friday!

No blood but definitley F'ed up-- had an extention break on the end of a 3ft pry bar working on the evo, extention broke, socket flew off the bolt head and clocked be in the mouth, busted both front teeth and left a perfectly round bruise on my lower lip about an inch in Dia. Happens just after 12, was back from the dentist working on the car by 4.. Hit my teeeth so hard that there were no big pieces just dust and minor grit. Really sucked.

Nice, could be!..Good thing was I had my teeth fixed in 4hrs--- a quick lesson if you will. With lacerations its a ***** everytime you bend them and bump them. It matters not-- everyone gets their fair share if cuts and gashes..if your worth you weight at all as a mechanic.
Think if it as a blood bond.. Ha.
