Blue caps were off?!?

Today I popped my hood just to check something...And I notice there was 2 blue caps sitting on my BATTERY. I just screwed them on with my finger? How did they come off? And How were they just sitting on my battery?

Is some1 fuckin with me?
Did the shop take them off, and why?
How can they be sitting on my battery after driving for days?
And is there any damage of having these off? What do they do?
Which goes where I just put them on but one says H and one says L?

If you had your a/c serviced recently maybe they forgot to put them back on.

Thankz bro, ya my car had freon added last week or so. Did it do any damage to have the caps off? And isnt it a little weird they were still on my battery after over a week of driving the beast.

it wont hurt anything to have them off for a short period. they are just to make sure dirt and grime doesnt collect in the nozzles.

Just make sure you don't make it too tight, if you do the refrigerant will leak out.

Btw: the H cap goes on the smaller line, and the L cap goes on the bigger one.

So what are those pipes for the A/C?

BTW, I did the total opposite of what you just said.

I made them really tight. And I put them in the wrong spot. I just drove for like a hour or so how bad is that? If i had them on wrong, and tight?!

As long as your a/c is working it didn't do any damage. If you tighten it too tight, the coolant will leak out.

It's a classic video game mistake. It was a poor translation used in the English version of the Japanese video game Zero Wing. It actually became an explosively popular internet phenomenon.

You can watch the video from the game here (the beginning...it turns into the full song based on the game): http://rmitz.org/AYB3.swf

It's great.
