    more car troubles.

    #1. i wreck the 93 EX then fixed it that same day.
    #2. 10 days later the hood popped on the highway going 75+ and wrecked it totally.
    #3. towed a front-end damaged 91 EX home 130 miles and fixed it and started driving it, that night it overheated like mad. worked all through the night to get it moving again.
    #4. put a brand new radiator in and the coolant got constantly messed up... figured it was mixing the coolant with the tranny fluid (automatic) so i replaced the whole thing and flushed the system over 6 times...
    #5. went to the carwash, me and mayberry washed and waxed and they looked beautiful then my car dies.
    #6. tow it back to mayberrys shop and find out its got a bad headgasket.

    all of this within 3 weeks. already picked up like $200 of stuff at autozone and me and mayberry will be breakign it down and doing hte headgakset tonight.

    freakin ***, ive had the worst luck with keeping a running cb7 recently. this 91 EX was suppoesd to be a reliable car that i could drive since my 93 is messed up... but its been having quite the problems of its own..

          damn, hopefully everything will be better from now on. make sure the headgasket is put on the right way.. when you have been working for a while, its easy to put it on wrong. good luck though.

                            It's always darkest before the dawn...

                            Think of it as a trial by fire...

                            Don't let the bastards get ya down...


                            Ok... I'm outta cliche's...

                            Keep yer head up and keep replacing shit till ya get it taken care of... at the very least you'll have less to worry about replacing later...

                            Keep whitey alive...

                              I know that feeling, we did that shit in my friends 1980 subaru gl. Dude kept on driving to fast, thought we was gonna rear end him. Then the worst of the worse happend, the steering wheel locked and the tow hook un latched and we shot off into some persons back yard. But it's all free.
