Might sound silly, but ive managed to drop 2 tiny grains of corn into the mothers triumph stag inlet manifold.. my first thoughts are no real issue, there tiny and there actually just the mushed up shells.. but still wanted confirmation

hehe well it goes like this..

we have mice in the garage..

we also have pidgeon food.

occasionaly u find the mice move the pidgeon food.

on this occasion they moved a little pile of it to the underside of a v8 engine/inlet..

I removed the inlet manifold in order to get the grains, in doing so 2 of them dropped down.. :( lol ooops

Hoover with some tights stretched over the end to make sure you actually suck them out? Can't see them being an issue though

Gotta say DJ the title of this thread has made me wonder how on earth did you get not one but two grains of corn inside an engine:confused:

:edit: i really should read the rest of the thread before posting:ashamed:
