[rant] Spi Motor Follies - NefCanuck - 07-17-2009

Okay, so yesterday I went down to the Hospital for Sick Kids in Toronto to present a donation cheque on behalf of Anime North and I was carpooling with the head of the charity auction who is driving an '01 Focus with the SPI motor (A little over 200K on it, still ran like a champ)

On the way back from the hospital she needs to stop for gas and says she needs to check the oil. I offer to do it because she admits that she has trouble doing it herself.

Having done it now I can see why...

Who in their right mind designs an engine so that the oil dipstick, one of the most important fluid level checks there is mind you, is at the rear of the engine and requires you to twist the dipstick as you're inserting it to put it back?

Christ, hot engine oil all over my hands thanks to that infernal design, may the designer be rotting in the nth circle of hell reserved for the worst of the worst.

There... I feel better now...

Some sort of nerd thing?



[rant] Spi Motor Follies - meford4u - 07-17-2009

SHocker?


[rant] Spi Motor Follies - Scorcher000 - 07-17-2009

Sounds like my Astro dipstick.
Yo had to twist and turn this 8 foot slimjim out of the engine block. If I ever get a chance to show you my GF Mazda Protege again, I'd like to see how long it takes to find the trans dipstick lol.

Missed Opportunity #1

Nailing a woman while she's bent over the bumper looking into the engine compartment.

Service with a smile.


[rant] Spi Motor Follies - Focus man. Focus. - 07-18-2009

Nothing like giving her the old dipstick covered in lube. LOL

Like I said in that case: "DO NOT WANT!" :ph34r:

Even if she was attractive, banging a woman while both of us are perched precariously over a hot engine, is not something I'd wanna risk.

You are a civil servant are you not? Consider it a public service.

[rant] Spi Motor Follies - meford4u - 07-18-2009

Dan,

You've been in ttwo accidents in 2 years. Take a little more risk and get out there.

With anyone.

Female that is.

Unlike certain other male members of my family, I'm not going to carelessly bang the first thing that is willing.

Because the result if due caution is not exercised is as in his case. An eleven year old screw up and child support arrears out the ass :ph34r:
