Well…just got back from a bike ride in shorts for the first time this year and thought I’d take a look under the hood of the car to check the fluids, etc. and just broke out laughing…some animal had tried to build a nest on the top of the valve cover with housing insulation…it was a big one, too…then I found another one tucked into the side of the fender that had sunflower seed shells in it…once I saw that, I came back inside and got a pair of gloves just in case there were actually critters in it….I can’t remember how long it’s been since I had the hood open but I know it’s a least a couple of months…just glad they didn’t start gnawing on the wires…..
