It's dead..... it finally died.......
Driving to work this morning down I-30E, I see a MR2 turbo blaze by me and think to myself "hmmmmmm..... how fortunate the seven is today to have such a nice breakfast before work!" So I boost it and it sputters out, so I let the little fishie go by. Seconds later I look at my temp guage and it is PEGGED!
Shut her down, pull over and watch all the steam escape and after letting it cool I go to start...... nothing. It cranks and cranks and smokes and smokes but no start-y!
Thank God for BDC! A phone call was all it took and I had it towed over there and getting ready to rebuild in less than two hours!
Brian..... you kick *** man.....

I'm thinking that a heater hose blew.... overheated, warped the housing, cut the inner water seal and flooded it w coolant. But that is purely speculation. I guess I will find out when Brian tears it apart. Streetport is definitely the way to go, but I've got to find some money to make it happen first!
