RE: [Chrysler300] Moron Needs Help!

["jennifer allyn" <gearhead.girl@xxxx>]

To all of you who have responded to me about this....
Thank you very much! You have all allowed me to feel much less foolish for
dropping a nut into the hole which will not be seen again until I pull the
motor apart again!

I am extremely happy that we are a part of this club, as you are all
incredibly helpful & knowledgeable! I only hope that when I begin the
restoration of our '55 Cadillac Eldorado, the Cadillac club is 50% as
helpful as you all are!

Thank you very much!!!!
Matt Allyn

You could try to flush it out with a blast from an air hose, or bend a hook 
out of some small gauge wire. Left to my own devices, I would just get 
another nut to replace it and leave it there, it isn't going anywhere and 
its presence down in that hole won't cause any problems.
