I HATE MY LUCK

[1SAWB]

SO LAST TUESDAY I GET A CALL FROM THE WIFE " HEY MY CAR IS MAKING A WIERD NOISE" :pissed2: SO I TELL HER TAKE IT HOME AND I'LL LOOK AT IT WHEN I GET THERE. 10 MINUTES LATER SHE CALL'S AGAIN " IT'S MAKING WAY MORE NOISE NOW" SO I TELL HER TO PARK IT AND IM ON MY WAY. I GO HOME AND GET MY DUALLY TO PICK HER AND MY BOYS UP. I PULL UP GET OUT CHECK IT OUT AND IT'S MAKING SHIT LOADS OF NOISE. I LOAD UP THE FAMILY AND GET READY TO HEAD BACK HOME AND DEAL WITH GETTING HER CAR HOME LATER. I GO TO START THE DUALLY AND THE STARTER EATS THE FLEXPLATE. :pissed2: FUCKING GREAT. I CLIMB UNDER THE DUALLY AND REMOVE THE SHIMS FROM THE STARTER TO GET IT STARTED AND IT DID BUT WASN'T HAPPY.

NOW FAST FORWARD TO MONDAY I GET IN MY TOYOTA ( THE LAST RUNNING CAR IN THE FLEET ) AND START HEADING HOME AND THE FUCKING THING BLOWS A HEAD GASKET. :eek: :mad: :pissed2: I TORE IT APART LAST NIGHT AND FOUND THAT THE HEAD WAS JUNK. SO NOW I HAVE ZERO RUNNING CAR'S ALL WITHIN A WEEK


I TORE THE WIFES CAR DOWN AND IT BROKE A PISTON JUST UNDER THE WRIST PIN ON ONE SIDE



CARNAGE TOTAL


1 BROKE PISTON /WIFES CAR
1 JUNK FLEXPLATE /TOW RIG
1 JUNK HEAD AND GASKET / YOTA


THE UP SIDE IS THAT I FOUND A HEAD ( THANK YOU AUGIE ) AND NOW LIKE USUAL IM GOING TO GO OVERBOARD AND PORT THE HEAD, ADD A CAM AND DECK THE SHIT OUT OF IT TO GET THE COMPRESSION UP :Big Grin:


SO I ASK HOW MUCH MORE DO I NEED TO TAKE IN LIFE ?
