I started my orb and dog dish condenser rebuild today..................
And may I say that some of those techniques look perfectly valid after todays day in the shop.
I need a drink.

Re: This is funny
I just pulled one of these stunts.
My wife's car needed a transmission service and it's a pain to go to the dealership so I figure, what the hell I'll just do it myself. To my surprise her car doesn't have a trany filter. So I'm thinking hmmm, take the plug out drain the oil put new oil in right, this is going to be easy. Every thing was going great right up until the time I need to put the new oil in. Acura's don't take a standard transmission funnel, the fill tube is somthing like a 1/4 in and I can't get another funnel. I spent 45 minutes pouring trany fluid through a FLASK FUNNEL AND A DRINKING STRAW.
My grandfather would say, We won the war why do we put up with this shit.

Re: This is funny
Sounds like my transmission fluid change except I dropped the pan only to find out that I had the wrong filter, and my only way to the auto parts was without a oil pan!!!
