Re: build sheet on door?

Favorite reported find... Olds Quad 4 stopped running, no oil pressure. We exchanged it. Engine plant teardown revealed remains of KFC box meal in the oil pan, box had plugged the oil pickup and starved the bearings. Chicken grease was not enough to keep it running.

Deliberate sabotage was rare but it was not uncommon to find things in bad spots on squeak and rattle rides. A bolt or nut in the door, or down the back of a trunk lid, can make a tremendous racket.
