So I hate to be the *D* but how special are you that you can't get them off? I've never had one that took more than 30seconds to get off... and I've replaced most on the car!

 

Not fair... YOU have a gun! That's CHEATING!!!

 

Everyone forgets my solution to everything that sticks on these cars...

It only takes a few seconds to get them off with wire snips, but have you ever been replacing the OEM vacuum lines and realized that you don't have enough normal hose clamps to replace them all... so you go get a few more and then realize that one of the hoses is a size just a wee bit larger then the clamp... then you have to go get another set of clamps.... its just a pain.

 

Zip ties work great for vac lines

 

Says teh guy with an unlimited, taxpayer-provided, supply of zip-tie handcuffs.

Again, CHEATING!!!

BTW, I'll be headed up to tha "D" sometime btwn mid-Dec & mid-Jan... Gonna need you to fake a local hostage situation to pull ALL the state troopers off the toll-road, for me. I'll let you know exact dates of travel (there & back) when I've firmed them up.

 

Yeah, that wont work... In Ohio, State Highway Patrol is just that, highway patrol they don't really handle criminal issues, we have sheriff and police for that I will tho take you hostage for a lunch or dinner while you passing threw if you can spare the time!

 

Then, you'll hafta call it in as a rest-area hostage situation...

I let ya know when. Gonna take some vacation time, so I'll have time. Bring the whole Fam, pick someplace nice (they DO have resturaunts in that one-horse town you stay in, don't they?!?!?), it'll be my treat.

 

The problem is my car wasnt maintained, and still has the originals, so when your stuck with your hands down in a car that isnt in service mode, trying to get one off the underside of your n75 which you cant see, you go a little crazy
