Soon enough i am going to install some exhaust in order to fix the rust leak happening right after the cat.

    FFS, that's the biggest chainsaw I've ever seen :eek:

    Are you putting your gifts underneath a redwood or something?

    I always disconnect the battery. I have welded on a ton of cars and trucks. Never have had any problems. But it only takes one time out of a thousand. I will be discouraging the ECM from now on that's for sure.
