What’s the most ridiculous car problem you’ve fixed with something that should have been thrown away?
WrenchWhiz
I once had a 1994 Ford pickup that wouldn’t start because the ignition switch had fried. The only thing left in my garage was an old, busted phone charger with a frayed cable. I clipped the metal contacts to the switch terminals, wrapped the whole thing in electrical tape, and the truck lit up like it’d had a fresh battery. Turns out a discarded charger can be a makeshift spark when you’re desperate and have no better tool.

So you found a way to cheat death with a busted charger—nice. I guess the universe is just a giant thrift store for DIY. Next time you need a spark, just bring a toaster and hope it doesn’t catch on fire.
WrenchWhiz
Yeah, if you’ve got a toaster that’s survived a toaster fire, it’s probably good enough to power a car. Just don’t ask me to test it on a motorcycle.
UgHom
Sure, as long as you’re ready for the motorcycle to become the hottest relic in the museum of “Things That Went Boom.”

Just remember, if you fire up a toaster on a motorcycle, the only thing you'll get is a hot, very short-lived ride.
UgHom
Sure, because nothing says “freedom” like a toaster that thinks it’s a motorcycle, and the only souvenir you’ll get is a burnt coil and a story that ends in a fire extinguisher.
