Help! Mechanic says I am missing...
OMG!!!
That www.kalecoauto.com site is a riot! I really want the synthetic oil bypass kit! I was laughing so hard I almost cried!
How about a true story to go along with the fun one here -
Worked part time at a good import auto repair shop. Lady brings in her first gen RX7. Says another shop worked on it, but it still runs badly. We took a look at the engine, and found a vacuum line split. End of story? No.
She showed us the receipt from the other shop... $250 to (and I quote) 'Adjust the valves on Mazda engine as part of tune up procedure'.
We laughed, we cried, we took 1/2 hour to explain to her how a Mazda Rotary works, then we told her to go get her money back and maybe discuss with the attorney general.
Knowledge is power, lack of knowledge is slavery.

Range 16K = 9.6 miles
Cost 3.2K for $0.15 = 1.92 miles
$0.07 per mile
Cost of Gas (at $2.69 per gallon it currently is) $0.15 per mile.
I geuss that it is a good idea, but I live more than 9.6 miles from my job.
Please see the thread about pluto on this forum. I stated clearly that PLUTO IS A PLANET and that is a fact. But it has nothing to do with pluto, and if you dont know that, you really need to take 3rd grade science again. I mean come on, what about elements like carbon13? It doesnt actualy from from the class C planet, carbontioum13 out in the delta quadrent.
lol.
lol.

Oh heck I dont know anymore myself. I got my car back long ago, with 5 new pistons made of paper, stored in the trunk, and someone was going to figure out how much HP I will get now. Driving doesnt feel any different, but my pocket book feels lighter.
