Wondered why the F150 engine was not producing as much power as normal. Opened up the case to find a pile of leafs or the top of the engine, and found about 70% of the air intake covered with leaf bits - don't know how they've got there with no tree in sight :- the RIB gets used most weekends. Somes bit will have gone in the intake don't know yet whether this will cause any damage or if there is a filter.
Mice can get in anywhere. I once was called to a PC because the mouse didn't work - turned out a mouse had eaten the serial lead. The poor mouse was dead inside the box. How it got in is a mystery - all the backplates were in place - it must have crawled up the gap at the front of the case!!!
