Raccoon under my hood

[the.shau]

Yep,
I went outside to start my car this morning (I live in a 3 story condominium) and when I started it the whole car shook. I turned off the engine and Melanie was walking outside to start her car and she was looking at me like WTF… She then pointed and there was a damn large raccoon standing by my wheel. I got out of my car to see if it was hurt ( like I could fix it?? ) and the raccoon just walked away unharmed. Melanie and I opened up the hood of my car and there was hair all over the top of the engine block but nothing was eaten or pulled out…
So when you start your car b e w a r e. . . :eek:

damn, sounds about time for an underpanel

Just be glad it wasn't a porcupine. Those suckers will gnaw on your radiator hoses and brake likes.

I will have to search and maybe find me an under panel if this happens again.

One time my little brother was saying that there was a squirrel by my wheel.
I really didn't think anything of it. When I started backing out of the driveway I noticed that I had no brakes. Turns out the squirrel chewed through my brake line.

My ma had an animal chew through her new trucks wiring harness.

Just piss on your engine to keep the beasties away. :laugh:

My son had a rat chew though a plug wire on his kia reo

Are you trying a new boosting system? Granted, the Yaris only needs a small engine, but I think going the "Racoon powered" way is a little overboard.
Although a sticker saying "40MPG. Racoon Powered" would be sick :P

Great on the gas mileage, but you'd spend a fortune on fruits & nuts.:laughabove:

YEA not to mention your probably going to get like .05 hp with just one racoon.....i say go back to regular horses and create an ultra cheap gruel...you only need 106 horses, aint no thang.

[PetersRedYaris]

How can a "damn large" raccoon fit under the hood? Crazy mammals!

[spkrman]
