I did similar in the late 70's when mum and dad were away on holiday on a 1964 Triumph Bonnevile in the kitchen.
I rolled back the carpet did all my engine rebuild - cleared up the mountain of oil from the floor - replaced carpet. Sorted.
For the next few months mum could not find the smell in the kitchen which had suddenly appeared and would not go away ,so after a stack of cleaning she decided it must be the carpet and took it up.
Opppppps By was I in Big Trouble when I got in from work. She still comments on it now when I have the parts in the house working.
Mums are great - She laughs about it now, but at the time she raised the roof
Caught out eventually then 😀, Better hope your wife doesn't read the above she'll be lifting the carpets!

Brilliant Love it ;D
My dad painted a petrol tank in the 70's and it wouldn't dry because it still had paint stripper residue on it. So he put it in the oven it got so hot he couldn't get it out. If my grandad finds out he will still give him an ear full.
My mum caught me boiling a master cylinder on the hob just before she died.
She walked in and asked what I was cooking when she lifted the lid of the pan all hell broke lose. ;D

Dishwashers are great at cleaning up crankcases, especially the glass beads that get everywhere after bead blasting. Dishwashers are also good for cooking fish but don't do it the same time as doing crankcases because it makes the engine smell fishy.

I baked the calipers in the oven but there must of been a bit of brake fluid still in one of them. Results of the paint finish was very impressive but the bottom of the oven is ruined. My wife has still not forgiven me.
