I was doing a performance overhaul a few weeks back. Job was going smooth. Then I spent an hour trying to get the freakin' turbo oil drain tube mounted while having antifreeze drip from the chasis on my face. When I finally finished it was dark. I still had to replace the injectors. I thought, what-the-hey, it should only take a few minutes, I'll do it now. One of the caps on the new injectors came off and fell in the intake--Dahhhhhhhh! Just then my wife came out and blew up at me for the job taking so long. Beer time!!
Sometimes quitting for the day is a good idea. Let your brain ponder a solution for a while while you lay in bed at night staring at the ceiling wondering "why me?". The next day I put a piece of chewed gum on the end of a piece of wire and was able to get the injector cap out of the intake without pulling things apart.
Reminds me of the old proverb: Every tool is a hammer. The only exception is a chisel---that's a screwdriver.
