Human body vs Car. Closer than you think

Found on another thread
Thought it was pretty cool!!

I keep having this thought on all these different conditions and problems a general car engine can have, and how you could draw connections to health conditions and problems we can have. This is by no means a complete list and obviously is up to interpretation.

Here's what I got so far.

Exhaustion and/or sleep deprivation = hesitation and powerlessness
Starvation/Anorexia = running lean
Overeating = running rich
Coughing= backfire
Overheating or fever = overheating
Hypothermia = inability to reach operating temps
Inability to sweat = Running out of coolant
Nosebleed= nosebleed (AKA oil blowing out the valve covers and PCV)
Hemorrhaging= excessive blowby
Bleeding = oil/coolant leak
Arrhythmia = missing on one or more cylinders
Heart Attack = engine seizure
Drowning = hydro lock
Asthma = bad compression
Emphysema = bad air sensing (ie bad MAF, MAP, A/F or O2 sensor)
Mental problem = bad sensor(s)
Insanity = bad ECU
Brain dead = fried and/or inoperative ECU
Coma = No ignition
Paralysis = broken transmission, driveshaft, differentials, or axles
Death = destruction of the motor (AKA thrown rod, blown piston, spun bearings, ect)

I put way too much time into this, but I'm a nerd. Feel free to add to it.

 

My best friend wrote a fitness book on the comparison of the human body to our beloved automobiles. Very amazing book I might add.
