When replacing the speed and reference sensors, I thoughtfully stuffed a rag down in the bellhousing window so that nothing would drop in there. Finally, when it was time to call it a night, I removed the rag...and promptly dropped a 7mm allen wrench down into the bellhousing!

The next day at work was a dark night of the soul. I scoured the net for stories of hope. I came back home and spent 4 hours with a coat hanger in the starter window cranking the engine gently back and forth by hand, until, miraculously, the wrench poked itself out through the passenger side top window. Relief doesn't begin to describe it. Never again!
