All...PLEASE remember to have the car secure before working under it. On Thursday my dear ol' man was Tinkering under his classic car when something went wrong. Fortunately i was about (first day off in 4 months) and managed to jack the car off him and get the services to him in time.

I hope he recovers quickly. I always leave the jack in place after putting it on axle stands, where possible, and if I have taken a wheel off I throw that under the car as well. |

Speaking of death, a colleagues once reported he lost his father a while ago because the named father wanted to check how much gas he had in the tank
