Angry annoying

I just about freaked out yesterday. It waqs finally warm enough to drive with the windows down yesterday, and to my horror at about 2500rpm on deceleration i was getting an extremely loud vibration and rattle from the centre of the vehicle, i don't know how long it has been like this because it has been to cold to have the windows down. So anyway last night i was determined to fix this problem so i grabbed tools and everything i thouht i would need, but no more than two seconds after i got under my truck my disgust turned to releif, it turns out the guys i work with thought they'd play a joke on me and clamped an exhaust clamp around one of my pipes which was only finger tight so it was an easy fix and left me very releived that i didn't need any major work.

Thank God it wasn't a muffler bearing or your tailpipe fluid was low. Those things can get expensive!

Hopefully you've flushed your headlight coolant, and changed the gasket in your light switch?

When I ask my wife if these things were done she says, "I'll have the mechanic do it tomorrow."

Just be careful that you don't get the bill for the mechanics work. Then the joke will really be on you...

I'm planning on switching to synthetic air in my tires. I fear my muffler bearing is wearing out, too. It's making a lot of noise. Should I get chrome or painted?

Also, has anyone checked their spark conductivity fluid lately?
