Actually, he's not a "teenager," he is probably 25.

 

oops..

 

How long have you been driving your car with the 100% anti-freeze?

 

I really doubt he has 100% anti-freeze (maybe he thinks that anti-freeze == coolant, thus, of course he has 100% coolant in there) -- then again, maybe I am giving him too much trust.

 

Crazyflipcarlo,

You stated in the west section that your car dosen't want to start now right?........... Prepare for the worst bro

 

I think you need to take this car back to were you bought it from, you really dont possess the, how do you say, 'common sense' to own it.

 

Whats wrong with teenagers having FDs?? You "old" folks gotta learn not everyone young is irrepsonsible

 

USE DISTILLED WATER!!! not tap water

 

I was a responsible and mature teenager. I was also an immature dipshit compared to myself now. When all you indignant teens get older, you'll feel the same way. One of life's biggest lessons is how little you really know and it's almost impossible for a young person to fully grasp that fact.

 

Ditto rynbergs statement.

 

Life is a learning experience. If he ***** his car up, it can always be fixed and maybe then in the future he wont make the same mistake.
With the falling prices of our cars we will encounter more and more younger buyers. But, how can we blame them? The FD is an amazingly beautiful, fast and now, inexpensive car.

Being irresponsible is a state of mind, i know plenty of 25-30 year old dipsh*ts. Age != maturity.

 

That's true and I almost added that qualifier to my post. But most 25-30 year old dipshits weren't responsible mature teenagers either. If you are mature and responsible now, it is highly likely you will continue to develop as a person. As you do, years from now, you will look back at your life now and go -- god, I was a little dipshit! Trust me, it will happen.

 

I think there should be a test before being allowed to purchase an FD. It should include basic common sense questions about cars, and other things in life.

Sorry Carlo, you have flunked the test. Give your car to someone that might have a chance to pass.

 

Hahaha. I gotta agree with rynberg. When I was a teenager I like to think I had my act together. I was on my own with my own job paying my own bills much earlier than most of my other friends. When I got a few years older I realized that even though I was better than most I had some more to go yet

 

^^^^ agreed


Crazy flip.... you are a crazy flip

live and learn... reading this post i almost spit out my water on the moniter when i heard he put a 100/100 mix

btw: im running a 75/25 - 80-20 mix with water wetter.

 

Down in san diego which is were i am (as well as flip) its been near 100 degrees the past few days its no wonder his car overheated with 100% antifreeze. I run about 70% water + water wetter and the rest antifreeze.

 

well folks, lessoned learned again. im really good on destroying things, blowing up buildings and knocking people out in the ring but im still learning how to take care of my car. don't get me wrong i love having this car, but its like being a father for the first time. so DON"T HATE!

for the non-smart-*** ppl. thanks! really appreciate the help

about the car not starting....its just the battery...so peace

 

oh and if you don't like a guy like me driving an FD then go screw a f@cking dead monkey!!!!

 

Carlo,
Anti-freeze doesn't cool as well as water... it just keeps the water from freezing. I would go 50/50 at the minimum, if not 70/30 (more water). And get a shop to put a decent water temp guage on it!

 

Can anyone tell me where to find a dead monkey

 

hmmm.. thats a very good point,
i'm only 22 now.. but I remember when I was only 18-19.. learn some **** the hardway.. heh..
and at the time there is NOTHING you can do, cuz you just cant see the fact that ur ******* young and dumb.

 

I would go with the 70/30 right now during the summer. I don't think you have much of a chance of the water in your radiator freezing in Cal. during the summer.

I think the test to own a FD should be like that commercial where the guy tackles the shopping cart so that it doesn't hit his car. Oh and you should have to read the whole Scudciriani (sp?) website before even test driving it.

 

i hope you didnt take what i said as a racial slur. Im Fillipino as well ( Half ) .. look at my avatar :p

Crazy. sorry to hear about your luck. im better at destroying things myself. however if your not sure about what your doing.. ask someone.. iluvmyrx7.com has ALOT of informatioin as well as the online factory service manual. Witch i downloaded and printed :O

 

Sounds like coolant ate a hole somewhere in your motor. Happened on my first turboII
