PSA: S4's cause major hand damage.
In the past 2 weeks I've got 3 bloody knuckles, 2 random hand stabbings, 5 burns, a laseration across my thumb and ~2 dozen minor cuts & scrapes.
..and nevermind all the blood all over the manifold and y-pipe.. that's minor league.

Damage mostly came from installing injectors w/out removing the fuel rail hoses..
It's MUCH quicker but b/c it's such a tight fit, there's a 99% chance you're walking away bloody. The rest came from stupid maintenance stuff like replacing hoses & clamps. I almost hacked my fvcking thumb off with serrated scissors cutting some new fuel hose. Then there's the burns from being impatient and not letting the engine cool down and the slicing of the fingers from hose clamps, etc, etc..
But, I'm one of those guys who keeps his engine spotless so the blood is only a temporary decoration.

Haha. You should try doing a motor-pull ;)
Even though I can't recall feeling a single one, I count 16 tiny cuts on the anterior surfaces of my hands alone: Goes with the territory
