Evil squirrels

So i pull the cover off the SS, Its a nice day and i figured hey why not, changed all the fluids this past weekend and instailed a few parts. Starts fine, drives for about a mile fine.
Then i start smelling this horrible burnt smell. At the same time i get code 1133 to pop up. Wasnt too concerned, a couple of hours later i get off work and get the car in the air and find a squirrel had managed to get himself wedged In my Long tubes between two pipes, If thats not bad the little bastard ate through my 02 extension. I was like wow, iv seen some pretty wild stuff but this one tops it for me lol. Needless to say you can imagine we have a little bit of a squireel problem.
