10 years ago I put windshield washer fluid in the coolant of a diesel truck at work. It was very little so the garage mechanic just shook his head and left it.

In my last car I dropped a nut upwards (yeah... dropped it up, not sure how) into the frame if the hood. For months it'd rattle when I closed the hood. Same car- it was very modified and I ran Torque all the time. One morning the heat wasn't coming on and the coolant temp soared with the heat on. It turns out I didn't tighten the rad cap enough and the pressurized coolant system blew out a gallon over 30 miles. No damage, it didn't overheat. I just topped off the coolant after and learned my lesson.

Torque is awesome.

The frs isn't modified much, no stories yet.
