Once I was helping a friend get his car started in the parking lot 
where we worked.  We opened the hood and took off the air cleaner to 
get a better look at the carb.  Upon closer inspection we found . 
5 or 6 large bones, like you might find in a roast or steak, sitting 
on the intake manifold.  We weren't quite sure how they got there.  Later 
I came up with the idea that a rat may have found the bones in the trash 
and put them there.  This occurred in Detroit, so I have no doubt 
that there were plenty of rats around.  Has anyone else ever found bones 
in there engine compartment?  Does anyone have any theories on how these 
bones, big bones, got there?  Maybe you should check under your hood.
