Going back about 40 years ago I had a young wife come into our shop with a car that was overheating, running hot or something like that (don't exactly remember the cause but it was minor) in I think what was a 4 cyl overhead cam Volkswagen. She had added water but it didn't help. Turns out she added a gallon of water into the oil filler cap. We told her what she did and we'd try to flush it out. She called her husband, at work, and I heard her telling him what happened. Suddenly she pulls the phone away from her head and from far away I could hear him screaming in the receiver.
