Whatever. He completely leaves out the fact that the turboencabulator can sometimes start deduplification if it goes into a Borden hold. Sometimes you need to adjust to melnix regulator, and the whole thing can go south if you don't have the appropriate left-handed spanner.

Yes,and if worn as a hat,the turboencabulator can protect you from a left-handed phase shift retro redundent polarity quench whilst eating Rice Krispies perched atop a totem pole during electrical storms.
I WILL keep my spanner close by.Thanks!

Very true, but remember that there are a lot of false positives from this. Give the warning light a tap with your finger first. If it goes out, no problems. If it stays on, it's often best to call up an factory certified encabulator specialist for decisioning.

Actually, I once had this happen to me (the warning light stayed on), but I was able to fix the problem without help from an encabulated specialist. The trick is to keep the biunilateral switchamajig from being hypersensitively underpooped. If you can manage that, you're GOLDEN

Who will then claim your encabulator needs to be exchanged, and after you give the work order, he'll remove/replace it, then add a new shift solenoid to your old one and sell it at a profit to himself as salvaged merchandise.

(Damn Chrysler and their ripoff service techs.)
