I had a guy accidently pour synthetic oil in his reservoir, he have been drunk to do that buy it cost him a good days work taking everything apart since it got into the intercooler bricks. What a dumb ass, I heard every imaginable story you can think of for what people do, like torquing the manifold bolts to 108 ft lbs instead of 108 inch lbs. He couldn't figure out why he broke all the bolts. Blamed Magnuson for selling a blower with fractured stainless bolts. He did admit his mistake and was pretty embarrassed and cost him a bunch of work plus I had to send out a new set of blower manifold bolts. Shit happens.
Wow. That's why people cringe hearing I do stuff DIY. People like this example, screwing up easy stuff, give bad opinion on others who research before touching. Ooph.
