Have you checked your car lately?

Don't forget to top off the blinker fluid and check your chrome exhaust bearings while you're at it.

I had to replace the roller bearings in my muffler last week.

I once heard a guy at a tire place tell a woman that her car wasn't ready yet because "the air needed to settle"...never went back there

[ChrisBcritter]

No ants, but I found an inchworm inside my Buick yesterday

Don't forget to check and tighten the carburator belt weekly.

[Snake45]

And make sure the Johnson rod is tight! 

[mikemodeler]

If you open the hood, make sure your "710" cap is on tight!

Hey guys & girls, don't forget to check that muffler belt, a bad one just ruins your bottom end!

[DrKerry]

Don’t forget to switch the winter air out for summer air in your tires!

[SfanGoch]

The mechanic in a gas station near Dresden, Tennessee asked my friend Tom Riley if he checked his radio before the heater core in his '76 Cordoba started leaking.

I hope that driver topped off his electric reservoir with the genuine Lucas smoke; won't run unless the smoke is still in the wires.

Hey Joe, don't laugh, I had an old Jeep that the wipers wouldn't work unless the radio was on!

I knew a local kid that went to work for a little airport in a different state and they had  mechanic there that worked on private craft that lived at that field and he managed to convince some of the pilots that flew out of that field to do just that

 

Now think about this, these were people who had enough money to learn how to fly then buy, store, and then pay somebody to maintain their planes

[Aspieguy]

What about a water pump for a '64 corvair?! Lol

 Years ago, I sent an employee that pissed me off to AutoZone to get me just that!  

I also asked him to go get me a 9/8ths wrench! Lol 

[Russell C]

Wish I had the time to check the flux capacitor .....

[MrObsessive]

Check your Disgronificator valve! Those are notorious for going bad!

[Sport Suburban]

I just order cross drilled brake lines to match my cross drilled rotors!

[peteski]

If the car overheats, always check for a broken buckle on the fan belt.

[Bucky]

At night, make sure the headlight ignitors are throwing a good spark!

I had an old car that I rarely drove. It sat for a whole summer and at the end of the summer I went to check it out and there was 2 bees nests in it. One in the outside mirror and the other under the lip of the trunk.  I will never forget that because I almost got stung many times trying to clear it out

Nothing will make your car's finish look smoother, slicker, or shinier than Prop Wash. It's available at your local airport. Just ask around.

Tap on the side of your block to loosen up the piston return springs and regain that lost power!

It's fantastic stuff... it's almost like it blows the dust right off...

LOL, a guy I worked with sent his wife down to the local shop that knew she was on her way. He told her to go down and do that to their car, the mechanic had her going, even put the car on the lift and made it look good. When done he gave her a bill that just said gotcha! He never heard the end of that one!!!

I agree though, airplane pilots and the like should know better and catch on to that!!!!
