just had to post this!
we had a TDi camper come in the workshop yesterday - sounded awful - barely running as if the timing belt had gone - so we take the cover off the belt and what do we find?........A FISH! no kidding got under the belt, caused the belt to jump and did the valves!
customer comes on monday - i am sooo looking forward to this conversation! :lol: |

Better have a picture to back you up...
Gotta wonder where they were driving when that happened...my first bus was a beach bus - I remember finding sand and sea shells all crusted up on top of the transmission years after I bought it... |

I found a SNAIL PUSHING my Diesel Vanagon up hill once...but,
the squirrel that lived under the engine cover ran out and ate the snail! :oops: |

here you go proof of the miracle!
and the possible? reason - we gotta check the oil for traces of wine!! :lol:
first picture is the fish piece. that's the van in question.
gotta admit can't think of anything funnier than 'a fish killed my bus' to say! |
