Bad luck my na87 7

about a week ago i got tags and insurance on my 7 and the other night some stupid @$$ hole threw a friggin big rock into my winshield and bent the hell out of my wiper.

and if that wasn't enough after I start 2 calm down and get on my way to work I start my car and I smell fuel. the stupid fuel line was leaking.

after getting that fixed the injector o rings start leaking.



so now my car is just sitting in the driveway waiting for parts and I just got it on the road. WTF?????

genocide is the destruction of an entire race. I don't think that there was a mass killing of RX's any time recently.

To the original poster: just relax. Life gets better when you hit your mid 20's.

I respect his grace.

It will be repaid in the long run. Guaranteed.

They told him to put prestone block sealer in it.

I can see it now.

Uh, yeah I'd like you to rebuild an engine for me, but don't use Halomar. Use prestone block sealer, that stuff is awesome in a rotary.

But I donno, maybe they did something eventually-hopefully.

How did that turn out Bonzai?
