Why not to drink (soda) and drive - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

OK, so I was on my way to order lowering springs today. I stopped at 7-11 to grab a pepsi. I normally dont drink anything in my car but I caught a bug probably on the plane back from Denver last week since my throat was scratchy and needed some fizz. I take a big swig before I pull out on the road...all good. And then I start hearing a squeeky hissing kind of sound what sounds like to be coming from the footwell on the passenger side. Quickly turn off the radio -still hear it. I then think great, my blower fan is going out

. It sounded just like a small motor going out. I turn up the blower and off and still hear the sound. I panic and start wondering if I read anything like this on the forum. Humm...cant think of any. I was totally bummed out on what I thought was going to be a great Saturday. I keep the radio off and going just under the speed limit on the highway not knowing was was wrong. I then grab my 20oz pepsi, unscrew the lid and tada - the noise stopped - it was my freakin pepsi lid not on tight and fizzing air out from around the lid

Take my swig, put the lid tightly back on...crank up the tunes and punch it on the highway.

And I did get my springs ordered, should have them on by the end of the week.

Bottled water only in my car. That's it. That'a all.

The way you described it, I was picturing a burning fuse leading to one of those big cartoon barrels of gunpowder.

Darth_Emma · 03-07-2010, 10:35 AM

No food or drink permitted in my Camaro!

I was really worried this thread was going to be about an awful sticky mess! Glad it wasn't.
