sparkolators

another name for SPARK PLUGS , Derek from Vice Grip Garage has awesome names for various car parts, that make more sense than the originals

it's time to remove the sparkolators and check if it's running rich or lean. i didn't buy any because they weren't on sale

drillium

add lightness by drilling lots of holes in a part usually on a bike or car. (weight reduction)

with all that drillium, I'm surprised it's not blowing away in the wind.

twistability

using wire instead of a zip tie or cable tie where strength is needed.

I'm going to use fencing wire to tie the mudguard on the Holey Goat, It's twistability makes it more suitable than a zip tie in this application. the more you twist it, the tighter it gets (just before it snaps)

lightning whirler

otherwise known as a Distributor on a car engine, makes the spark go to the sparkolators.

Derek from Vice Grip Garage has alternative names for various tools and parts, and they make more sense than the correct name

i'll need to take the cap off the lightning whirler to clean the points. rats have chewed a few of the lightning hoses also.

crapyard

a back yard filled with crap. broken down cars or other unfinished projects, usually has grass knee high with lost wheels and other hidden junk to trip you on.

where's your mower mate? it's lost in the Crapyard somewhere.. it ran out of fuel half way in and by the time i got around to getting more fuel i couldn't find it again. i looked under the 3 cars and empty drums but only found 2 snakes and a wombat.
