My best booty-fab trick happened several years ago with a POS Heep cherokee I suffered with for a few years. Driving up to Tahoe, the vacume pod on the carburetor fell off, and jammed the throttle linkage wide open. Scared the $hit out of me and my brother in law, as I had to shut off the engine in order to not blow it up (prolly should have let it blow in retrospect). Should have seen his face as i was standing on the now powerless brakes, trying to keep from going over the edge of a cliff

.
Anyway, found a paperclip on the floor, and hooked the vacume pod back where it was supposed to go. Told everyone I would fix it when I got home. 3 years later, sold the POS with the paperclip still in place, doing a great job.
