    Exclamation 0 Period Auto Shop Class - Shop Talk

    0 Period Auto Shop Class - Shop Talk

    Read about editor Henry De Los Santos memories about 0 period shop class and all the injuries that go with it.Knuckle Busters
    A while back I discussed rather embarrassing car-guy moments. You know, things like running over your own foot while checking the timing (sigh). If this is news to you, let me bring you up to date. I put the automatic into gear with the parking brake on full effect, ran over to the front of the car, and revved the motor after setting the timing by ear, only to run over my own foot. Yeah, that was rather interesting. In my defense, I was 16 and didn't know any better. Matter of fact, it was during my early morning 0-period auto shop class, where I first overheard a classmate discussing the ingenious technique. Well, lesson learned. I never did that one again.

    one time i tried (for some stupid reason) to try to check the engine oil capacity with the car running...then remembered that that only works for auto transmission fluid level checks.

    oh...the best one had to be when i pulled the spark plug wire off the ignition module with the car running and zapped the all eternal livin piss out of myself. hand went numb for a while and the arm was tingling pretty good too.
