Manarius vs. Auto Belts

So, after looking for the O2 sensor to no avail, I decide to turn on the car to check where the heatshield that is rattling is located. I turn the key and turn the car on and the auto-belt comes up. Well, I wasn't paying attention and I got my shoulder caught between the belt runner and it's track. The belt then proceeded to twist me in an odd way and I got caught in the belt...pinned between the door and belt runner itself. What a painful experience..let me tell you. I have a nice brushburn on my left arm as proof and some pain in my back from the contortion the thing put me through.
Moral to the story: Don't reach through a shut door to turn on your car. It could do something crazy like it did to me.

I opened the door slightly to look behind one time when I was lining the car up to a ramp to load a machine into the trunk... the thing nearly took my head off.

You mean you can't find the O2 sensor on an N/A???

I found it now thanks to fultonhow and scuzzy. I was looking in the wrong place.

Yeah, we solved it on IRC last night. A place, I should add, where more people should come and hang out (and not just stay for 2 minutes and sign off). Because we're cool like that.
