I can beat that. I couldn't get a new plug to seat properly and kept getting it stuck. I had to fish it out (repeatedly) with some forceps that I "borrowed" from my father in law. Exasperated, I decided to clean up my work area and only counted 5 old plugs. Duh. I had been talking to a fellow Rennlister while changing the plugs and had forgotten to remove one before putting the new one in. There really is no hope for me.

Didn't I tell ya they multiply on their own? Give em some privacy and close proximity, and you got more screws.

Reminds me of a garage I used to park my motorcycle in. A couple of the guys had beautifully restored vintage Norton's, Triumphs and Ducatis. Anytime they had an extra screw or nut they would go throw it under somebody else's bike to give the other guy a fit trying to find out where it fell from. Cruel.
