it didnt go into the intake did it? or did it just fall down the intake gaps and into the engine bay? if it did that then its probably sitting on your coolant tube between the block, one of them flex magnets with the lights on them will help a ton. |

Welcome to my world. Mine usually hit the ground and roll all the way over to the neighbors house never to be seen again. |

Scoobs is right. Most likely sitting between coolant tube and block. |

OUCH!!! I think what rmcelwee is trying to say is - Make sure you find that socket before you decide to just fire the car up and drive away... |
