how is this for a dodgey job

Post by jakey106 »

I replaced my engine mounts on the weekend and found this..
They had attached a bit of hose held on with a cable tie to stop the engine mount from sagging. How dogie no wonder why my engine was sitting on the cross member

CHRISTIANITY: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...
