A little Oil Cooler Surprise

My radiator is out of my car, again, as I need to modify the oil cooler lines with my new duals (thanks Fritz!) I am putting in. The fins on my stock cooler are bent and i have reconditioned my new ones so I figured I will pull it out as well. After taking the brake duct off the driver side I nearly get stabbed by this:



Now I have heard of dead birds, even a dead frog to be found in the undertray, but never did I expect a Box Cutter. How long its been there now is the question. Made me laugh and i had to share. RICKRX7, if you are still lurking here, I have your box cutter.


BTW, Dual Stock Oil Coolers isn't so difficult and running the hard lines is easy, especially when the radiator is out. If you plan on doing this I recommend removing the radiator. Give you a good reason to flush your coolant anyway

That's hilarious. Reminds me of the time I found a screwdriver inside the fender liner of my last car.
