If they have older trucks, pull the coil plug off the end of the coil just enough for it not to make contact.

Put anchovies on the exaust manifolds--disclaimer- this will last a looooonggg time(the smell)

Open and drain a can of tuna and hide it under the seat--same disclaimer


I'm telling you not to do this for the safety factor, but if ya can remove the valve core from a single tire, let the air drain and pour about ten ounces or more of water into the tire, refill the tire and let it go. The vehicle will shake badly and drive like crap, the tire will be very far out of balance and cause major vibration. They'll hunt it for a long time and usually are very PO when they find it. But don't do it cause it's very dangerous if they aren't good drivers, especially at higher speeds.

Here's something that I would NOT recommend.

Take his ignition key and smash it with a hammer just once. The end result is the key won't fit into the ignition, and if it does, it won't turn.

This happened to a coworker while he was visiting a friend at his shop. Some idiot stole his keys and smashed it. The guy didn't get fired, but he got a butt chewing, paid for 2 new sets of keys, and lost the respect of all his coworkers. All over a simple misunderstanding. If you're gonna prank someone like that, at least get your intended victim, not some unsuspecting visitor.

Pranks that are not able to be fixed on the spot are not funny,someone is going to get mad if you cause them to be stranded.Soooooo,take a piece of wire,open the hood,strip the end and put it in with the coil wire on the coil,then thread the wire under the truck and up through the passengers door where he cant see it.Take it behind the seat,strip about a one inch area off the end,then bring it up through the crack between the bottom and the back of the drivers seat.Then barely tuck it back down where he wont see it when he gets in.When he turns the key he will get the surprize of his life.I know,I have done this to alot of porters! Just make sure that the guy you are zapping does not have a pacemaker,we dont want to hurt anybody.

go to local junk yard and get a bag of broken safety glass. Roll down the side window of the unsuspecting target. Sprinkle glass on ground and in seat/floorboard.

Naw, here's what you do. Get the biggest, heaviest zap strap you can find, and attach it to his drive shaft. While it won't throw it out of balance, it will hit the underside of the body, making a ticking noise. Even better if he cranks his stereo before he takes off, he won't hear it until he turns it down.

Or, get some used oil, and spill some under his car.

True story.I tied an empty garbage can to one of my co-workers back bumper cause he always takes off like a nut when he leaves.Well,he had his stereo blasting as he left and didnt hear the can banging around behind him while on the lot.So,he pulls out onto the road,a high traffic road I might add,and gets about a 1/4 mile down the road before a cop pulls him over.Next thing I know,he is back,with the cop,and my boss.And as Ricky Ricardo would say,I had alot of splainin to do!

That won't work without major work and damage.
Tie a shop rag around the driveshaft, it will make a bad vibration he won't be able to figure out at first. Or five or six hose clamps on the drive shaft, with the screw all on the same side.
Just don't break the guy's vehicle.
