It was fun while it lasted...

The motor finally went on my se, with 218k on the clock. Its rather odd tho, I went to start it yesterday after sittin all day in the rain, it flooded out, which was usual, so I unflooded it, then it started and ran on one rotor, which also wasnt unusual for this car for a few minutes till the 2nd came on, the second rotor sounded like it started to come on, then it just went away and it was a lawnmower, then it backfired incredibly loud and died, and wouldnt restart. Contrary to the title im not gettin rid of it, ive got all the parts for a new motor on the way haha, so its not all bad, im lookin forward to pullin it apart to see what went!
