don't feel too bad, me and my buddy were ridin around in a bronco II we saw an empty grass lot that was muddy from where it had been pooring down the rain, so hes like lets do a little mudbogging. so he hops out and turns the hubs. get back in throws her in 4wheel drive and we go in, then she starts spinnin, im say it aint in 4 wheel drive the front tires aint spinnin, he replies with YES IT IS THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE LIGHT IS ON, so after i have to get out and push on it untill we get enough traction to back track out i look at the hubs, well sure nuff he unlocked them when he turned them

weve all done something like that. We get in a hurry and forget some little something.

ok to make you feel better when i installed my headers i forgot to put all the drivers side plug wires back on and she fired up i was like what the hell shes not sounding right(RUNNING ON 4 CYL.) then light went off and i realized what i had done...

like i said we all have our moments and ive been working on cars for years now since i was 14 and have done everything from rebuild engines to pretty much everything that can be done.... but still i get in a hurry and it happens.

i also knew someone who put a fuel pump in and forgot to plug the wires back up at the tank reinstalled the tank and wondered why it wouldnt start...

thanks for sharing alot of people dont like to admit when they do something crazy like that.
