Anyone need a flux capacitor?

Post by rltvader »

So apparently O' Reilly's got so annoyed with people coming in to ask for a flux capacitor, they actually put it on their website. It gave me a little laugh.

That's great! I think I will get two. One for the wife's car & one for my truck. At least they have a sense of humor. :D

They had a recall of the flux capacitor in my toy car. But I've been too lazy to take it in for a new one,
even after about four recall letters so far..

I'm so disappointed. I called the local store and they weren't able to find the part number in the system. What a waste of a perfectly good prank call.

You have to make sure you give them the line code, otherwise it will just come up as a flywheel ring gear.
