Upper radiator hose BLEW off my car...

Yeah.. got off work had to go pick up my wife's brother at his college...

pull into his parking light and POP... Smoke started BILLOWING out from under my hood...

It looked dark at first so I was scared sh!tless...

pop the hood and the upper radiator hose just blew off the radiator...

didn't rupture or anything just popped off...

Fixed it there and luckily had some distilled water in the car... I think it was just the stock honda hose clamp sucking (they suck)... combined with my car running a little hotter than normal due to being in traffic and my fan not working...

Anyway... it sucked scared the crap out of me...

i love it when something hits the fan, you nearly shat yourself, then realize its no big deal and all is well after a minor repair. one of those things you can laugh about with friends.

haha like the time i threw a rod in my first b16

or when a rock got caught in my timing belt in the B16 #2

or when my friend left a rag in my oil pan and it got caught in the oil pickup and scored all my cylinders in the b18b

or when the water pump went out in my other d16z6 and it had too many miles to make it worth fixing.

hahahahahahaha
