If your speedometer cable has it's outer cover frayed, it is slowly leaking transmission oil, leading to loss of lube, heating up and damaging your transmission.

Replaced two trannies before I realized what the real problem was. Replaced speedo cable (with new rubber gasket), end of problem. Make sure tranny is properly topped off with 80 wt. gear oil.

What happens if you bathe a rabbit and its head gets wet?

If a rabbit's head gets wet, it could get an ear infection. Baths are not usually necessary for rabbits. Healthy rabbits bathe themselves, and as a matter of course you should keep them away from very messy areas. If your rabbit is messy, something is wrong! Baths can be very dangerous for rabbits, whether their head stays dry or not. See the related question below for details and links.
