Car abuse at its worst

Nothing like starting your day off with a video that'll make any petrolhead cringe and ask why?

Ford Australia's Barra straight six engines are famous worldwide for being strong and a dependable powerplant.

Some thong wearing, Aussie bloke has gone out of his way to either prove the Falcon's durability or to make the whole internet hate him. You decide.

Everyone knows an engine can't work without oil, yet this guy ignores common knowledge and process to fill the engine with water, giving a new meaning to water-cooled.

Despite this the 4.0-litre six fires up but doesn't sound healthy. The engine does cut off after the owner begins to pour water into the throttle body however.

The torture doesn't stop here as he attempts to turn the Falcon's engine over again and just when you think it's died, the mighty six coughs to life.

Sounding like a whining puppy who just wants to be left alone, the owner who has no mechincial sympathy continues to abuse the poor engine by adding even more water.

To the credit of the Barra, it doesn't stop ticking despite the pain you can hear it suffering from.
