I Almost Died becuase of stupidity

:
P5T
We'll today, I was doing my oil, and filter cleaning my intake, just cleaning up, just maintence and that type stuff. Well I took off my intake pipes, and I unscrwed something, next to my throttle body so i could clean and shine some s*** up. Because I like it to look nice for the ladies. Well stupid me did not screw this part back in. Right now i cant even remember what part it is. But I was driving behind my friend on the highway, and he has a MR2 he took off and i wanted to catch up, we were already going about 60. Well right when it opened up, the throttle controller got stuck open and i felt my gas pedal hit the floor. I had no control, i couldnt slow down, and i was trying too, my brakes are toasted, and then i finally put it in neutral but then it revved to death. So when i was going about 80, i pulled the key out. It was so ******* scary it was the middle of the day. Lots of cars on the road. it freaked me out. I stopped and fixed it and screwed it back in. I was scared to drive the rest of the day.. That just defines the saying
" rev it till the valves bend". We'll if its shot, i always need a beefier bottom end. Thought i should share my stupidity with all.

God I'm retarted
 
deeeam. glad you are ok.

guess you learned a valuable lesson... always triple check everything you do to the car. :)
 
I usually do, but i started late working on it, and it was getting dark. My garage, is useless right now, becuase my baby is in the garage, my project, my grandpas 58 Caddy coupe. He left it to me when he died. Along with the not so great 64 corvair monza. but the Caddy isnt running righ now so i cant work in the garage. But I will never live this down with my friends. I feel like Ed from Crank Yankers

Seriously, it's good to hear you got out ok. To be old and wise first you must be young and foolish...

I'm glad nothing happened to you but man I am cracking up at the understatement here...Glad I didn't die, that would've sucked!!! (rofl) (rofl)

You make it sound equal to spilling your coffee or something...
 
i'm comfortable with death. but, yes it still would have sucked, because i wouldnt be able to conquer my dreams like owning the world and ,"doing to girls at the same time, shoot thier has to be some woman that would double up on a dude like me, and with a million dollars i think i could pull that off."-Office Space
 
s*** man

super super scary...the stuff nightmares are made out of. full throttle with no way to stop, ahhh...

but smart thinking with that key-trick. didn't even know you could do that.
 
yea a lot of cars dont have a feature like that. I love my P5 it saved my life, it was me that almost killed myself no the cars fault. But damn it was a rush. I have been taking good care of the p5 so i dont think it wants me to die quite yet.
 
yay for no death.

Apparently the Early ford focus' had problems with cruise control and would stick in the on position, woo, lol
 
Welcome back from the adrenaline powered rush you must have had. Good cardio workout.

If you take the key ALL the way out, if you turn it past a certain point, it will lock.
 
OMG!! Scarry sh!t:eek: I'm glad you're okay!


You were also smart at the same time. That was some quick thinking. Others would have panicked and lost their minds.
 
you dont have to turn the switch all the way off, just back to the acc mark or whatever it is i think. Good to hear youre ok
