Stupidest "technical" advise I've heard lately

Outside a liquer store one day I watched 5 guys trying to get an old LTD started that was flooded. So the smartest one in the group said it was out of oil. I watched as they filled it till it came out the valve cover. Since I had not seen this particular method used before, I stayed to watch. Nothing happened so I left.

Had a woman tow her car into a shop I worked at once. Her check engine light was on and the car absolutely wouldn't roll over. At all. A little investigation and just a hunch pulled the dipstick. Oil all the way up to the dipstick handle. She thought the check engine light meant low on oil. Pushed it into the shop and dropped about 14 quarts of brand new oil out of it.

Probably one of those idiots who reads the paper about how to winterize her car, too. :roll:
