"You know your cleaning when your hand start burning."
I was changing the fuel filter underneath a VW van once. Sure, a little
gas
will probably run out the tank-side hose when I d/c the filter (even though
I pinch the hose), for a second before I jam a golf tee into the end of it!
No big deal. I was off to the side so the gas wouldn't come close to my
face.
Unfortunately when I removed the filter, I was pinching the hose with my
left hand and some gas ran down my left arm. Being that I was jammed
underneath
the van, my left ear was right up against my shoulder. You guessed it, the
gas ran straight into my ear. Believe me, you don't EVER want that to
happen. Even constantly flushing it with water, it was basically the most
unpleasant half hour I ever spent. If I had thought tearing off my own
head would
make it feel better, I probably would have.
Cheers,
