    Guess what I found??

    My car was smelling really bad so I took it to the car wash and cleaned out and washed the inside of my car. The stench did not go away. I looked in the trunk and there was nothing. I then opened the hood and what did I find?? A dead dang skunk. A big one wedged in my engine. He must have either went there after another animal or trying to get away from something. My neighbor and I unwedged the dehydrated corpse out of my engine. I NEVER saw anything like that before. My car still kicks like crazy. I guess it'll take time to get it aired out. I was at Burger King today and the drive thru woman took my money, squised her face up, then said "Wht the hell is that smell?". I joked that I forgot to shower then told her the truth.

    Sorry to say, your right! It will take up to a week for that smell to fade. I ran over a skunk and my truck was humming for three days farless stuck in the engine.
    You might want to have the engine power washed, it could only help!

      That's good tucker you just threw away John! LOL!

      Sorry to hear that happened. . . .but what a bizarre, yet relieving feeling it must have been when you found it!

          So instead of horsepower, your engine had raw skunk power!

          I hope for your sake the scent fades quickly!!!

              I think you might be right Bill. I think it might have to be professionally cleaned.

                        LOL ! That is absolutely crazy. I would have loved to see the drive thru woman's face. I have had a baby deer that looked like is was miscarriaged on my damn lawn once, but never an animal dead in my engine.
