Don’t believe everything you see online, girl tries starting her car with a 2×4

We get it. Not everyone is a mechanic. Not everyone really cares to learn about the inner workings of a car and just prefers to leave that to the professionals and their machine that is nothing more than a simple A to B.

However, there is a baseline of intelligence that we figured most people would have on the matter and other matters that could come into play in our daily lives. More and more folks prove us wrong every day and the results, well, sometimes they can really be hilarious.

This time, we check out a girl’s story as she has a car that won’t start and a “friend” of hers has seemed to give her some rather corny mechanical advice. Basically, what she was told was that if she hits her gas tank hard enough with a 2×4 that the fuel pump would start working and the car would run.

Well, we’re not sure if you’re in the know on this one, but that’s not exactly how things work. That’s really not even close to the way that things work. Maybe this poor girl should reconsider the source of where ever she’s getting that advice from.

Check out the video below that displays this failed attempt that has the side of this poor car taking a beating. Maybe the problem is that she’s using a 4×4 instead of a 2×4.
