hey all this happend to a mate in his Ltd el 5ltr
he was checkin the coolant in his car as he had just done his water pump. shut the bonnet and started up the car only to have it running a bit crappy, but thought nuttin of it and drove home. he drove around for about another 3 days with low power and finally decided to check his engine and try find what was wrong. so he pulled covers off, pulled leeds out, still couldnt find anything but then he pulled the airbox off and found his problem... a sparrow had flown into the air pickup at the top of the engine somehow and got sucked into the airbox when the car started. he said he pulled what was left of the bird out and it was fried stiff so make sure u always chek airboxes!

Poor birdy. I hate it when I hit them.
Just think to yourself "It had the bird flu" and it's all better. |
