I bet that wiggly pinion is what took out the seal and made it leak in the first place. Amateur mistake on their part, or they knew it was bad and were setting you up for failure.

Oh, yeah, sure. You just wait right there, I'll be there Monday morning, bright and early! Oh, and you should hold your breath, until I show up, just to keep things sterile....

Yeah, I know. Needed to be low key after the last event at Charlies. I can still taste the crab juice if I think about it too hard.
