How to ruin an FD owner's day

Just unplug the vacuum line to the MAP sensor. Car will smoke, show low/fluctuating vacuum on startup, idle very rough. Just like a blown seal. I know, 'cause I knocked mine off this morning while adding a ground.

lol, that happened after I changed the plugs on my buddy's auto. I was like: damn, I know I doubled checked them? Then he saw the hose disconected on the map sensor. It sounded like it was running on one cylinder, or should I say rotor housing.

Could be a lot worse, your FPD could fail and start an engine fire while you are out in the middle of the boonies.

Yeah, or I could have just finished some mods, which I probably would have UNdone, looking for the problem.

I hate when stupid **** like that happens. It really does ruin your whole day. Kinda like when you loose your friggin wallet with all your credit cards, cash, and then you spend the whole day on the phone canceling and reording cards.

If anyone ever decided to ruin my day like that, they would catch a beat down. Followed by sadistic torture.

Whats wrong with Viagra? If you ask me, a massive erection of that sort would be a victory in my book -- whether it come from a pill or from watching the Disney Channel. Wait, am I alone on this Disney Channel thing?

Anyways, yeah -- I was changing my oil once, and I knocked off the hose to the map sensor. I think I crapped my pants that day.

What's wrong with a fat bitch?

I mean, Ben's got Jlo. She's got booty. Right, bitch?

Remember that old Arabic saying: "Never take a skinny camel for a long ride".

(How come NO ONE under the age of 25 can write a complete paragraph, avoid run ons, spell or punctuate correctly?)

We try Ron.

There you go: a sentence without a run on, spelling mistake, or puncuation error.

I'm a 22 year old marine that likes small chicks. The shorter the better. If I ever ran into you I would bash you, and you know it.

Wrong, sir. "We try, Ron." would be the proper way to say it.
