Watch those sockets! 900

I was going to post this anonymously for obvious reasons, but I figure honesty is the best policy... While servicing my flame trap (see prior post) I found it neccessary to loosen the clamp where the large rubber air hose joins the throttle. Unbeknownst to me, the socket decided to stay affixed to the hex screw on the clamp... that is until I began to lift the air hose up out of the way. At that point I saw a flash of silver as my little socket bounced its way around the throttle mechanism before disappearing down a hole between two of the intake manifold runners. I don't believe it can cause any great harm down there, but I have yet to find the little bugger!
