Stupid Friends Stories - Auto Related

[ChoochCharlie]

I want to read some dumb friend stories of the auto kind.
Here's what I'm talking about...

My wife and I were patiently waiting for our friend to arrive for dinner, and she was late. Standing out front of our house we see her turn onto our road, going really slow. Finally she pulls into our driveway and gets out. I ask if she got pulled over for speeding or something.
She replies, "No. There is something wrong with my car. It won't go faster than 15 miles an hour. Everyone was blowing their horn and yelling at me all the way here and I had to pull over several times to let them by."

I take the keys, hop in and start the car. Instantly, I notice her floor mat is shoved all the way forward, under her gas pedal. Problem solved.

I had a girlfriend that had an automatic 300z or 350z (hell I don't remember, it was like in 89) which she treated like it was a stick, you know 1rst 2nd so on. I was riding wth her (which was scary) and was like WTF? I couldn't convince her she should not be doing that. Oh well, she's someone elses problem. :shrug:

Another from the same friend. Her car was making a strange sound so she dropped it off at the shop.
Returning after work, her mechanic handed her a Snapple bottle. "What's this for?" She asked.
"It was under your seat. Should clean your car out, it will stop those funny noises."

Just read this one here in the forum: LINK

My ECT Power indicator light just came on. Does anyone know what that is and what needs to be done for it to be cleared. Any help would be much appreciated.
