Doing the clutch bleed on Sunday, my wife knocked the clutch fluid reservoir cap down into the brake/clutch compartment in the engine bay. What a pain! It took nearly 30 minutes, a 15" long screwdriver, and some 12" long needle nose pliers to fish it out from under the brake master cylinder

She was very apologetic, but I just told her that's what working on the car is all about: wasting time dicking around with stuff that you messed up completely unrelated to whatever work you are doing
