  • Accident's happen

    This is what happened. I was working on my other festiva on a heating problem(noted in another thread) and i put my hand on top of the radiator cap to sort of balance me while i was looking at something else and the cap must not have been on tight cause all of a sudden the cap came off scalding my hand and i even had gloves on. It even blew up and hit me in face and i was real lucky it didn't get burned. This happened four days ago and it still hurts.

          YEOWCH!

          Long ago, as a teen, I popped that red tab on the center of the cap, but the whole cap came off, and got me!

          I feel your pain, brutha!

          Literally! You made me feel it all over again with that pic :~(

            I got lucky when something like that happened to me, I only had a few small burns. One was on my face though and it left a nice scar.
