Customer says it still drives fine, just pulls a bit.

Anyone lose their keys 🔑??
Almost missed what punctured the tube on this spoke motorcycle wheel today.

Customer states exhaust leak
6.4 Powerstroke massive turbo failure. Got about 3 qts out of the intercooler, every exhaust joint is dripping oil all the way back to the axle. It’s gonna smoke every time they hit the gas for months.

Had me questioning life. Cummins ISL G.
Didn't originally diagnose this, but was told it was long overdue for plugs and coils. Performed tune up, cleared codes and ran it. Still surged, flashed stop engine and 2457 Multiple Cylinder Misfires. In between surging it would rev and run perfectly, but kept surging and "missing" only at idle.

Already had new ICM and ICM harness, valves adjusted recently. Monitored Datastream and verified that all coil voltages were within spec. Even when "misfiring" they were normal. So I eliminated the Ignition system from diagnosis.

Cleaned the Fuel Mixer, Throttle Body and MAF. Much needed. Reassembled and retested. Still missing, but sounded better.

I saw that the fuel pressures at idle were a tad low, but nothing that should cause an issue. Replaced the high side and low side fuel filters, reset the fuel tables, and retested. Still surging but a definite improvement.

One trend I started to notice when monitoring the Datastream was that the issue was only happening during Closed Loop. So during Open Loop at Cold Startup it ran great, until the system went into Closed Loop.

I performed a visual of the O2 sensors, and found the upstream sensor had been rubbing on the turbo, causing damage to the shielding and wire. Replaced the sensor only to find the same thing happening.

I was scratching my head, but figured I'd check the downstream O2 Sensor. It looked fine, until I disconnected it and found the corrosion on one of the pins inside the connector.

Replaced it, cleared faults. Done.

Genuinely was scratching my head, questioning life decisions, and getting the parts gun ready.

i have no words
04 honda accord, was recently sold like this. came in with two flat tires, at least one lug nut missing from each wheel, collapsed strut on the same wheel as the photo, steering wheel is sideways, the entire car is COVERED in bondo, oil pressure sensor is just puking up oil, and the passenger window doesn’t work

The s**t I have to deal with
In what world is this okay??

This guy rolled in wanting me to repair his homemade wiring and add trailer charging, brakes, and lights. I told him no way am I touching that.
He came in with a 5.4 F150 a year ago, he says that truck burned down and took his house with it. I am gobsmacked I tell you, just utterly flummoxed. This truck was bone stock two months ago and the spaghetti is front to rear.

I want to see video of him trying to pull anything with that winch!

Parents States: they began to feel unwell after driving in my car. 2010 HHR
I think that this air filter was original to my car from factory

Ever seen a rotor this bad?
Mazda3 sedan with about 75k miles that DROVE in for a rear brake job. These are the people we share the road with...

2025 Maverick with this odd perforation in the exhaust. Anyone know what it is, and why it’s here?

Helps with compression…
