uh, I did that, and there was nothing more ridiculous to me than finding the weight of the earth because I didn't care how much the earth weighed.  I care how much this clutch shoe weighs.

The transmission in the van started whining like a Ford power steering pump.

now it shifts like my Honda, (good for Honda, bad for Chevy)

looks like that "transmission rebuild in a bottle" just expired, oh well it lasted over a year.

A car turned left right in front of my scooter tonight in the rain. I locked both tires, put both feet down, and rode the gnarliest skid to within one foot of the car. They never even noticed. (I mean WTF! It's bright fucking yellow and ugly as shit.) I'll never be able to sleep tonight.

today the boss's 7 year old kid climbed in-through the driver side window of the car that I was working on.

then proceded to turn every fuckin knob, lever, adjuster, push button- you name it

did I forget to mention that this manual transmissioned car was idling?

then upon exiting the vehicle, he rolled up the window and locked the door.

did I mention the motor was running?

Needless to say, I got yelled at today for taking the lords name in vain, and cussing in front of his kid.

I'm thinking of quiting

o good, theres a 3 mile long stream of Honda transmission fluid, that mysteriously leads straight to my driveway.

I guess that's when you know you have arrived.

or perhaps its when you realize that first gear is gone**


why

Because Hondas are not made for ramming? Probably at the radiator/tranny line = low fluid = no first gear.

look man, that asshole had it coming!

he tore off my freakin mirror for Christs sake

yea I thought of that to, turns out it was a dry-roted trans cooler line.

split right in half, this was a blessing in disguise.

I needed to flush my transmission fluid anyway, and I'm lazy.

look at it this way, $40 for transmission fluid, $25 for a new mirror, $5 for 2' of hose and clamps.

I don't think you can get a tyranny flush that cheap at Jiffylube, and I don't have to dispose of a gallon of tyranny fluid :0

Hey I've got this exercise machine cleverly disguised as a 73 XLCH. The points have juice even with the key off and no spark when the key is on. It's extremely heavy and likes to be pushed around in order to move, the only other exercise is jumping up and down on a pedal that if things go wrong can slam back and catapult you over the handlebars or you can hyper extend your knee. The XLCH's are known as "The Milwaukee Crippler."

my radiator cap split in 2 today, it is about 2 months old.

steam, antifreeze blasting down the driveway.

Nippon Denso, not a cheap one. . . unless I got fucked over $12

I just pulled the broke part out of the neck, and put the cap back on.

I don't care anymore

I work on junkers every day that make this car seem like a gem in my eyes.

still haven't had a problem that I couldn't fix.
