Ollygt Regular Location: Brisbane Registered: January 2003	Re: Home mechanic war stories Thu, 16 January 2003 07:20 Working on Dad's civic, (I forget what I was doing now, I think I was replacing the thermostat) anyway the ring spanner I was using slipped and landed right against the starter motor contact and the engine mount, so of course spark spark spark, I couldn't knock it away with my hand so I had to run off and get something non-conductive, when I got back I was starting to smell an electrical burning smell and the spanner was starting to glow, well I knocked it out, the battery wires were pretty warm, and now the spanner has two nice little arc weld type spots on it. (Note to those who opened a hot radiator cap, if your car is overheating, do not open the cap, the system obviously is under pressure, releasing said pressure actually makes the temp rise for the rest of the fluid in the system, works like a pressure cooker does) [Report message to a moderator]
