A while back a mate of mine was doing the Redex cylinder treatment on a Fiesta XR2i, removed the plugs, poured in the Redex, left it a little while so stuffed a bit of rag into each plug hole.

Turned it over to clear the redex, decided to leave the rags in place to stop it spraying everywhere. 2 get blown off and land on the floor, 2 vanish completely. He thinks nothing of it and re-assembles it, but it won't start. At this point he calls me to come have a look at it.

I managed to lend a borescope off a local garage, had a look inside the cylinders, and sure enough, 2 of them contained some very mashed rags. Absolutely had to take the head off to get them out.
