Craziest Brake Job I have ever done

Yeah well if you had a couple of drinks and are a few miles from home, I can see folks just trying to make it home and worry about it the next day

Or they have to get to work on time, etc

If the oil light is already on, it needs to be repaired anyways, how much more damage can happen anyhow just driving another 5 mins. Its how some non car people might think

I recall the time I blew a head gasket on the freeway while having it wot and white smoke started to pour out and engine slowing down--but still had decent power. I just wanted to get out of there, lol Drove that sucker all the way home and didn't do any extra damage but if enough water got in the cylinder I could had bent a rod, blew a hole in a piston. Now oil light, that is different, ha ha but till the noise starts some folks are dumb
