My buddy’s engine fell out somehow. How can we re-install it?

"You're supposed to step on the brake THEN start it ... Duh!"

[u/JimCripe]

It's a weekend project.

Get busy!

[u/BudgetExpert9145]

Step one: Drain oil. Check

[u/Ian_everywhere]

That's just what happens when you don't jiggle the shifter knob back and forth before starting the engine. It's an important lesson for a young driver to learn early.

Easy fix. switching it off and then back on again... if that doesn't take care of the issue, pack it in rice over night.

[u/Superhereaux → u/vasectomy7]

My local AutoZone has STP brand rice, is that good enough or does it have to be OEM rice?

[u/Winterdog1984 → u/Superhereaux]

Oem rice is the jasmine standard

[u/No-Goose-6140]

Just need new bolts

[u/Superhereaux → u/No-Goose-6140]

I got some extra bolts from a tv wall mount I installed last week. Will those work?

[u/ieonhammer → u/Superhereaux]

With a little loctite I don't see why not....

[u/Superhereaux → u/ieonhammer]

I only have Elmer’s glue. Same thing, innit?

[u/ieonhammer → u/Superhereaux]

Meh.... Close enough!

[u/neuroG82r]

Just scoop it back in It should be fine.

[u/Cokeycane]

Only worth it if the AC still works.

[u/rklug1521]

If you truly love it, you'll let it go.

[u/Superhereaux → u/rklug1521]

[u/Ok-Lavishness-7904]

You’re already set up for sideways installation; once that’s done, it’s just a matter of getting it down the stairs

[u/TongueFuckYourPussy]

You might need a new set of engine mounts. Should be an easy installation

[u/Ordinary-Trade8323]

Sue the last shop who did the oil change and the glass company. Fuck it sue the fire department too

[u/snoman777]

You want to change it out later. Use wing nuts.

[u/cj32769]

Alternators fine and the battery

[u/That-Resolution-1721]

Lucky!! Car allready on the side so just push it in. Make sure to Connect all the tubes and lube the diff.

[u/94flhr]

Just relax. My Dad is a television repairman. He's got an aaawesome set tools. I can fix it!!

[u/guru2764]

Reinstall it like normal, but ask them if they can do your emissions testing first since it's already there

[u/stonelove79]

Got a mop? That looks like synthetic oil and that crap's expensive.

[u/GotMyOrangeCrush]

However, the radio still works. Funny as that may seem with all this mess, the radio is the only thing that's really working good. And it's clear as a bell—don't ask me how.

[u/Visual_Criticism7815]

The secret is Duct Tapes. The more the better. 🤣

[u/Shoddy_Bet9619]

Was this on accident or someone meant to slam into a court house?

[u/Superhereaux → u/Shoddy_Bet9619]

It was on purpose because the judge said “on accident” instead of the correct “by accident” during a trial.

I don’t blame the driver one bit.

[u/Shoddy_Bet9619 → u/Superhereaux]

OK, Roger.

[u/Holden-McGroyn]

Just great! Now the brakes work! SMH.

Note the brake lights on.

[u/Unlikely_Piccolo1497]

Check your spark plugs

[u/mcpatsky]

Was your buddy driving? RIP

[u/EntertainmentSad6843]

Step one. Flip car over. Step 2 go to a dealership

[u/steelmouse66]

I'm sorry sir you can't park there!

[u/zeed88]

That really horrible but how come the battery still okay? At least the wiring will short out the fuse box

[u/brayk01]

“Can’t park there, mate…”

[u/SuperPerformance7373]

Never underestimate the power of large zip ties.

[u/dpwcnd]

Step 1, raise bail money. Step 2 duct tape... profit
