I did the same thing, dropped the alternator mounting nut into the lower timing cover. I was able to get it out with that telescoping antenna magnet...
I had it happen once and then of course the magnet came apart down there too. Just don't be surprised if you have to pull all the covers and the crank pulley. Bascially you can easliy replace the timing belt and the front main seal if you have to take it all down... next time have the cover on
or don't drop anything
or don't drop anythingTurn car over and shake it.:icon_razz
Sorry, it can be a bitch. If you can't get it easily or if it is wedged, try some compressed air or rotate the crank a little in the direction that will push it back up.

i got it out... i shrinktubbed a magnet to a thin peice of wood and fished it out after about 3 hours of it falling back inside.

LOL...then he would levitate over the nut, and pick it up using only his mind power. :rofl:
I think Criss Angel is a borderlilne con artist. Unlike most magicians, he passes off a lot of what he does as some sort of mind/body/soul exhibition that only he can understand and do.masterchief819 said:
Magic is magic. People don't get crushed by a steam roller and not die or even break a bone. People don't climb through glass windows. People don't delve into the deepest corners of your mind to see the Ace of Clubs you took from the deck. Maybe humans have the potential to do certain things that would normally be thought impossible. I just don't believe Criss Angel is someone who has achieved anything like that.
That said, his show is very entertaining.
