Not a car story but a good one non the less.
My friend had his boat repowered with a new Mercruiser 5.0MPI about three years ago. So these past three years he was having the Merc dealer winterize it. This year he decided to do it himself and I helped him. If I find the previous idiot that worked on that thing I will smack him over the head with his _)(&*+(&_(&()&*+ filter wrench. I have never seen a fuel and oil filter on so tight, the guy must have torqued the living crap out of them with a wrench! If your going to wrench on engines learn how to tighten filters!
