How To Find & Recover a Dropped Tool In Car Motor Compartment

If you've ever lost a tool down in your car's motor compartment and it doesn't fall through to the ground, here is a quick video on where to look and how to recover it.

What if I have no way of lifting it since it's on an incline, there's no bottom panel and I dropped my keys?

[@rinzler9775]

One tip - always chock you wheels with wood or bricks to stop the car rolling - if it does, all three jacks would tople.

I lost a bolt like Luke Skywalker lost his hand....it just went down the dark hole, never to be seen again.

-1:58 “these nuts”. I just dropped a new spool of electrical tape into the abyss. What a effing PITA!

[@buckithed]

you should not be using the jack stands with wood on top of them. Imagine if they slipped.

[@petergusev999]

Do you understand physics?

[@DrWho2008t101]

what object will damaged the car if dropped? like a bolt or or rock?

[@Apuroop4life]

I dropped a 12 inch long plastic straw. I'll try your method and see if I can find it.

[@mileslampert1622]

did the same thing today

[@DrWho2008t101]

thanks

[@fusionchef1]

safety just left the building. Any time you jack a car always chock the remaining wheels. Not to mention what someone else already said about using wood being a bad idea.

[@tetrasphere8165]

I dropped a socket in my engine and it got caught into something to do with my braking system. Any specific ideas? Can't find it. Afraid to drive my car.

[@tetrasphere8165]

@God Trojan no actually. Lol. Haven't driven my car since. Haven't really needed to anyway. I was going to take to a near by parking lot and try to shake my car around and see If it falls out lol. Otherwise I have to take it in because I'm going to need my car soon.

[@CHAOSMOVEMENT]

I dropped a terminal pin removal tool, rolled off the coolant overflow tank and literally disappeared. The thing with mine is there is no skid plate in the front, it just disappeared into the vortex.

[@CryptoMineLLC]

That can be a tough one. We just need a lift that can flip a car upside down and give it a few shakes and problem solved, right? haha

[@CHAOSMOVEMENT]

@@CryptoMineLLC Actually, I decided to dismantle the entire vehicle, still didn't find it!

[@yuni7131]

@@CHAOSMOVEMENT why in the fuck would you do that

[@CHAOSMOVEMENT]

@@yuni7131 It's called sarcasm dude...I know people today can't recognize it or humor but us old mother****ers still use it.

[@lperea21]

Oh i found it! That's where it came from. I was wondering how it got there.

[@rinzler9775]

What happens if you have a car with a mysterious black hole at the bottom of the bay, guaranteeing you will never see those tool or bolts again.
