Inclinometer removal
Inclinometer removal
Not sure if we should make this a stickie or not
If you have an aftermarket inclinometer fitted on top of
Your dash like I did. It was fitted when I got the car and
Today I decided to remove it whilst I was waiting for twiss to arrive.
It uses a double sided sticky pad to fix to the dash and it didn't seem to want
To pull off on mine so I used both hands with my knuckles against the
Windscreen I levered the inclinometer away with my fingers.
this results in the adhesive giving up suddenly and in turn
Katapults the inclinometer straight into your forehead
The next step is to look around for any witnesses

Re: Inclinometer removal
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! Class act there Andy.
I shouldn't laugh. I had a similar...uhm....'incident' when trying to get one of my old front brake calipers off. Ended up banging my head, hard enough to see black spots, on the inside of the wheel arch.

There's three ways of doing things:
The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

I once smashed myself round the chops with a pair of pliers I was using to pull a really really big cable tie tight.

Steering wheel to the face hurts a lot too when removing it
if in doubt, FLAT OUT!

Re: Inclinometer removal
I seem to have a knack of pulling a tight sock off only for it to ping away and my heel to connect with my gentleman's area...
If it ticks over...leave it

Moved a complete 1300 and gearbox lump onto a tyre
By myself m. Trying to shifty it over I grabbed the gearstick and
Carb and heaved the whole lot over. The gearstick poped out
And I stabbed the threaded end into my cheek and punched
My self in the eye too. Resulting in a black eye and swollen cheek/eye
Socket.
Was going to a fancy restaurant that evening too!
