Boy are you lucky....

Years ago, I recored a motorhome radiator for a guy who was leaving in a couple days for a vacation trip out west. He went home and put the rad back in, replaced the cap, rotor, plugs and wires and somehow got it out of time, left a half inch breaker bar on it, and naturally, it fired right up and wiped out the new rad, fan shroud fan and ripped the trans lines off of it.....

2 days before they were leaving to go on vacation. eek

To this day I still think about that every time I am turning a engine over with a breaker bar in the car.
