Bit of info required hopefully for my amusement
« on: 12 January 2009, 10:08:49 »
I was hoping that someone may be able to give me some info that should make me very happy

my wifes dopey boss decided that his car was running a little rough so treated himself to some redex petrol treatment stuff which i know from being on here is not really worth doing. However rather than adding it to his petrol tank he put the whole bottle in where you fill up the oil.

Now i am hoping that this is going to cause him problems as he is a complete t**t, so if someone could let me know what if any problems he is likely to face  ;D

LOL perfect example of the snake oil mug.  ;D

My car is not working properly so rather then trying to diagnose a problem, or at least making sure it's been serviced adequately, I'll go out and buy a heavily marketed potion, and even then not bother to  read the instructions.

Yep, conrod exit stage left is the usual.....or just an engine which starts to rev more freely for a very short period of time before seizing.
