My theory on the "wrench" you heard on your video the other day bouncing under the car was the piece of all-thread you cut off of the air cleaner stud! When you cut it, I said to myself, "that's going to fall out and scare the crap out of them"! Keep up the great videos.

I can't believe he let you drive it knowing how far he had to drive! If there's one thing I know from watching MTOD, Roadkill, HRG etc etc, it's don't let Tony drive your car unless ya want content! He breaks everything! No offence Tony, Love ya! But Zero mechanical sympathy, until afterwards!
