conundrum for all you aspiring mechanics

Some things just can't be placed elsewhere. Have you been speeding and got fined? Or spotted a nice new Volvo on the web somewhere? All non-480 messages can be posted in this part of the board.

conundrum for all you aspiring mechanics

WHAT IS A 710 ?


A few days ago I was having some work done at my local garage.
A blonde came in and asked for a seven hundred & ten.

We all looked at each other and another customer asked,
'What is a seven hundred & ten?'
She replied, 'You know, the little piece in the middle of the engine,
I have lost it and need a new one..'

She replied that she did not know exactly what it was,
but this piece had always been there.

The mechanic gave her a piece of paper and a pen and
asked her to draw what the piece looked like.

She drew a circle and in the middle of it wrote 710.
He then took her over to another car which had its hood up
and asked 'is there a 710 on this car?'

She pointed and said, 'Of course, its right there.'

If you're not sure what a 710 is look below!
