Nope. The "other" F word, as in "Read The F * ckin' Manual."

I believe the expression is for those that blindly foray into automotive
operation without lifting the cover on their manual (i.e. usually the
owner's manual, but sometimes the repair manual).

FWIW, I didn't invent it. I just perpetuate it every now and then.... :-)

Take care.
