Definition of a nightmare
Q. What is the definintion of a nightmare?
A. well I will tell you.......Try removing the bumperettes from a 72--80 model holden van when the nuts are cross theaded and so rusty U think they must be from the titanic.
These bolts, for those that dont know, are located inside the body at the rear beaver panel and they allow enough room in the cavity for a three week old baby hand to just struggle to fit a spanner on but dont try to move the spanner though.
Almost got my gas axe out to help but had a quiet moment to count to 10 then went back to it.
And at this time they are off, and last seen sailing through the air towards my back paddock.

Oh I thought I cornered the market on doing things the wrong way.
No 1 son says after I had finished "why didnt you use the air ratchet in a tight spot like that?"
He was last seen heading after the bumperettes

My definition.......
Pulling out welsch plugs before selling car that is a daily driver....
Thought I'd do the right thing before selling the Hz, & pulled out a few extra's...
Low and behold 2 days later.... no transport Mind you.
Try belting a round plug into a smaller round plug, that requires the swing of a sledge hammer to get in,
when you've only got the room of a bees anus between extractors/exhaust & cross members...
Still got the scars, tears & less hair for the experience.....
ALWAYS ALWAYS replace these little barstards when you have the engine out....!!!
Cheers Allan
