i've done two major dumbass moves.

in the supra, i failed to plug in the walbro connector all the way, had to figure out why the hell the pump would work off and on until i dropped the tank and just *click* the connector was in all the way.

in my old POS audi i changed the headgasket and water pump, and like 50 other things and when i put the oil filter back on i failed to realize that the gasket had come off of the previous filter and stayed on the block. so when i put in the new filter no matter how tight it was the extra rubber ring that stayed on there just blew out 5 seconds after i first fired it up. My dad was crouching next to me looking under the car when the gasket blew and 3 quarts of oil sprinklered out.

Only two?

That's nothing. Honestly I couldn't begin to count all the stupid stuff I've done. Some out of ignorance, some out of carelessness, and some I'm not sure.

Now I just try to learn from my dumbass moves, and try not to repeat them:nono:.
