Perhaps more likely to be a good man with many enemies.
Can we assume that a bad man's enemies are good, and therefore unlikely to
indulge in sump sab, whereas a good man's enemies are likely to be bad, and
to think nothing of sabotaging a fellow's motor while he's indisposed?

Posted again as first seems to have got lost, and will no doubt reappear just in front of this.


It seems to me that if just one or two bolts came loose, the others would prevent a leak from occurring. Only when most became loose would a leak occur.

So I suspect that the bolts have been loosening over a longish period, and that what you have here is a "last straw" situation. It took the loosening of the final bolt to cause the leak.

Of course, you may be a bad man with many enemies. In which case, you are not suffering from paranoia, but a realistic appraisal of your actual situation.

I go for the first explanation.

Since I got out of the hospital my vehicle has been leaking transmission fluid. I crawled underneath today and tightened the transmission pan bolts. All but the one that is hardest to
reach were
loose 1/2 turn. The vehicle sat in front of the apartment
for two days
while I was in the hospital. The transmission pan gasket is
cork. These are the facts.
My thoughts are that I do try to keep up the truck and it was not leaking at all before then. I was the one who last changed the transmission fluid and filter about 3 years ago, and had no leaks until this. I can not imagine all the bolts coming loose the same amount by themselves. Yet if someone wanted to cause me
problems they
could have done a lot more damage than just loosening the
transmission bolts a bit.
So I am wondering has anyone experienced bolts all coming loose the same amount on their own like this?
