I have only done the drain plug thing one time before, but I am sure it will happen again down the road. The one I still chuckle about that I did was leaving the oil pressure switch out on my 1966 Olds 442 I was restoring. The engine had just gone back in and everything under the hood was detailed as new, but I didn't have the hood put on yet. Dummy me can't wait to hear that new motor roar to life so I hit the key and sprayed oil all over everything under the hood and clear back to the trunklid and dripped off the rear bumper. The switch is right up front and on top next to the fan so the oil shot up and the fan blew it back. now that was a mess and the car was leaving later that week for the paint shop! I shut it off as fast as I could, but it still lost 3 quarts. When I think about it now I remember one of Dads favorite sayings about "The sh$t hits the fan" and just crack up laughing.
