Boozing and driving. We can only hope he eventually is the receipient of the Darwin award.

Like the guy who climbed up the power line pole and drank a six pack. Took a wizz and the electricity arced back through his privates. That had to hurt

I had a friend in HS who thought his parents found a way to lock the their Jag so we couldn't drive it.... So I go over there, stick the key in, won't turn, so I move thw wheel, and of course it worked. He was amazed. "How'd you do that?!?" LOL

I am not sure who was dumber, him or the folks. "Now, the keys to the Jag are in the third drawer. Don't drive it. We'll call you at 8:00 to make sure you're not out driving it!" LOL, yeah right!

The first thing I learned when we got our Z, make sure that clutch is ALL THE WAY DOWN! If it's up just a fraction, you ain't startin it! Thought I was going to have a fit. When you turned the key and then nothing! A guy in the sales department shared this with me. Now the seat is up just a bit.

i was in my garage one night and i was going to check the feathering on my tires so i turned the wheel all the way to the left so i could see a full view of the tire..next thing i knew was i heard a click and the damn steering wheel locked up column and everything i guess i put the wheel in a bind from turning all the way . anyway i couldnt get it to unlock for anything finally after about 10 minutes of messing with it ...it unlocked i thought i had broke it as much as i was trying to get it to unlock... see it was locked with the wheels turned all the way left.

I did the same thing. THat **** was locked up tight. It took awhile to get it to turn. For anyone that hasnt done this in the Z, it seems a lot harder to unlock than previous cars. Get in your car and before you put the key in, turn the wheel as far as it will let you in either direction. When it locks, put the key in and try and get it to turn. Mine locks up tight.(Not responsible for any damage from anyone who F's up their car trying this)

Back on the subject of blinker fluid. Synthetic is good but even if you don't go synthetic, you should always try to use HALOGEN blinker fluid. Xeon blinker fluid is good but it gets too hot apparently. I always use Halogen.

If I remove the muffler bearings, will I get that really cool fart can sound? (j/k)
FYI...You don't need blinker fluid in TN because no one uses them anyway...save a lot of money that way!

I got a deal at my dealer he gave me a full blinker fluid flush and replaced with synthetic. You guys are getting ripped and are doing irreprible damage to your cars by not flushing your money, i mean fluid regularly.
