    I would just cut a gasket out of that banana peel and call it a day.

    If you’re worried about the repair bill, you shouldn’t own a Lamborghini anyway.

    It’s part of how they keep the posers out of their cars.

    You could 3d print one for about.39c.

    You can print gasket material with a 3D printer? I didn't know that.

    Permatex's The Right Stuff became my go-to for form in place gaskets. Fast tack, fast cure, and fluid resistant in minutes. Been a while since I had to wrench on stuff, but it worked great in all my Lamborghinis.

    My father and I tried that stuff (or the early 1980s equivalent) on the oil pump of my (now) wife's '77 Fiesta (lovingly monikered The Fiasco) after an oil filter change mishap. The operation was not a success. :# Unfond memories of that little adventure.

    I'll regale all y'all with some of the fun tales of the colorful ways that car used to break down some other time...
    That little blighter was fun to drive, though.

    Meanwhile, I need to go out and pull the Lambo into the garage. The snow's starting to accumulate, and I can hear it rusting. B)

    No clue, looks like some thin piece of plastic on my phone.

    It's quite smart actually. You can piggy back on those interconnects, you can cook a perfectly shaped egg and your amp will warm up much faster.

    That is supposed to have a description that says "Customer complained of sewer smell in the laundry room"

    You and I must get the same suggestion feeds on FB...I saw it this morning on the crapper.
    See profile for rigs. Nothing else here.

    Well, you do have to crack just a few eggs to make an omelet but I guess if you're making "The Big One", you gotta crack ALL the eggs!

    Pretty good quality u joint right there. The universals are what used to break when my foot slipped off the clutch as a young fellow. Then losing one or 2 needle bearings in the grass when putting in a new joint made for even more misery. Don't miss those days in the least.

    Judging by how new and shiny that driveshaft is that's not the first one they tore up.
