I was changing one out today in a buddy's car and the damn thing un-wound itself in my hand! Needless to say, it sucked. My right index finger took the shot. There is a chunk missing out of it. I couldn't get it stitched, just cortarized and wrapped with a splint. It's numb as $hit right now, but tomorrow I have to go back and see if there's any permanant nerve damage. I nicked a tendant and I may not be able to bend that finger from the middle knuckle up. Here's a picture:



I know this really isn't a 4.6 General Discussion topic, but I figured I'd share with my mod motor buddies.
