Auto mechanics have the task of servicing their local community’s vehicles. Whether they’re maintaining or repairing, it’s necessary to keep the neighbors moving. However, not everyone who owns a vehicle has been taught how to maintain them between visits. This post is specifically focused on the weird and wacky types of projects that can end up rolling into the auto shop. Some of these projects will make you scratch your head; some might even gross you out. But at the end of the day, if we all know a few things to look for, it could save a lot of money on repairs. We hope you enjoy this funny list of the strangest things mechanics have seen on the job.

Is this some genius mechanic hack, or is it just a coincidence that the thread pattern lines up perfectly? Either way, that probably shouldn’t go there.
