As some of you may know, I recently had a 2.5" sports exhaust installed.
The other day, the missus and I were driving back from Ballarat and I was going on about how loud it was and how loud I wanted it. Then I started ranting on about how nice it would be to own a V8.
She asked me what the sound was coming from the exhaust and why it was loud.
I replied by saying that when the cylinders fire it created a bang which in turn, turns the crank in the engine.
She then looked all shocked and asked me,"What??? Theres fire in the engine"
I then stated to her... thats why we need fuel to burn ect....
She yelled at me to pull the car over on the highway insisting the car was'nt safe because theres fire in the engine.
Anyways... Do you think people should be more educated about how an engine works?
Should they warn women like this in the owners manual... (Caution! Car may contain fire.)
OMG you mean there ARE actually women out there that are like that????
Sheesh, I thought it was common knowledge how an engine works?
If you put a fire extinguisher in the car will she feel safer?![]()

Is she blonde by any chance lol.![]()
dude either you explained it really bad or there are a fair few pieces missing there. Give her a feed of macca's and tell her it's okay.
How long you been together? If she's still got warranty trade her in on a newer model, if she's out of warranty you're better off running her into the ground.
lol Ozzie, i think she is beyond help and educating. Guess it explains why she is with you

Certainly not a warrny thing - in fact i wouldn't believe someone could be that... special.
Despite the educational correlation i have to disagree - if she was a 'mish' girl they'd have had 6 kids by now - after all they've been together 2 years.
ive alway's thought in the future when we have electric car's ect people would think like this when they hear how an ICE ( internal combustion engine) work's
Eureka styles!
I'll be happy when you explain to me how you mastered time travel.
Semantics aside, what you are suggesting is totally different though. We're talking about someone using something probably daily and not realising what the fundamental components create.
You are talking about something that will be superseded and obsolete which o course will be a difficult concept to grasp. It'd be like talking about the old metho 'photocopying' machines.....
Id be careful Lianna is my friend :P
I do this sometimes too, come out with silly things about cars, We have been together 6 years and i know so much about cars now. Being with a mechanic, i got no choice. Trust me in a fes years shell be under your bonnet working for her self!
hehe. Well i think every one has blonde moments. Some times i think men are just as bad when it comes to womens stuff!
