My dad's work van died while he was driving it for the first time in a couple weeks. He coasted to the side of the road and noticed some sort of smoke was starting to come from the engine compartment. He popped the hood and leaped aside as a smoldering and terrified porcupine tore out of the engine compartment and down the street, a faint trail of smoke in his wake. Looking back at the engine, the smoke was getting worse as visible flames started to grow larger. A guy from a nearby office came running out with a fire extinguisher and got it put out by the time the fire department arrived, who then hosed it down further for good measure. Being the type of guy he is, my dad had it towed home and running within the afternoon. It appears the porcupine had nested on the intake manifold and either intentionally or unintentionally damaged some wires which caused the fire.
Moral of the story - glance over the engine compartment before starting your vehicle if it's been sitting for very long.

Still makes me the (unofficially) ONLY two-toned TBSS in Canada... that was taken to the cleaners by a Hyundai Elantra on the QEW...
Nice find!!
There... I fixed it for you...
PS. You're welcome.
That was me in that Elantra. Sorry Harmless I did not want to tell every one but you forced me. That was me that smoked you on the highway, Blew by you doing at least 105 km , left you standing still, as if you were not moving.

That's all good. At 105KM/hr, I AM just standing still. Mom always told me that every once in a while, you have to let the smaller, more retarded kids win a round or two. Makes the game feel fair and they don't feel as butthurt and will want to play again.
It's nice to see you coming back for more.
I was starting to get bored.

Ok, so THAT has to be harmless' retarded 5th cousin.
Really?!
We've lowered ourselves to comparing the likes of harmless to a PT cruiser!?!
Oh. Wait. I am home.
Dammit!!!
Fire06 said:Harmless you are the best !!!
BTW, if you were in the Elantra (which is smaller than harmless) that does make you the "smaller retard" of the bunch... therefore I am still correct. This one you will not win.

Do they have an "Offrading for Dummies" section in the owner's manual now??
Fire06 said:Harmless if it was me in the Elantra you would only would have seen my exhaust
What? That lame-O cherry bomb fart can?
Riiiiight. Nothing screams horsepower like an exhaust system that makes your ride sound like a phucking mosquito hopped up on Red Bull.

Sorry Harmless it is totally stock looks stock and is stock... It was all the skill of the driver ME " For the slam dunk":wootwoot::wootwoot:

Good thing that grill is on there to make it completely safe.
Between this pic and the one of the wall-mounted spring compressor safety guard, I really want to see more shop pics from KSA.Wooluf1952 said:

The things you see here are just amazingly stupid. I'll be pretty busy completing my mods list before end of next week, then it's vacation time wooohoo! 1300 mile roadtrip back home! Hope my Truck is ready by then! No joke to get stranded in the middle of the desert!
anyways so yeh i'm sure i'll pick up a few other pix throughout the process
