I just think there were many of other, better, ways that he could have started rather than jumping into a dsm.

well that makes a ton more sense then the b/s i came up with :lol

I know how far in this car I am right now, and I probably jumped in too far. But no one has made a working time machine yet, so no going back from here. It is what it is.

So tonight I replaced my spark plugs. The car seemed has been idling a little rough for quite a while. New plugs went in, car idles like the day I got it again. Once I get the biss o-ring and idle stops changing based on how strong of an artificial seal I make around the idle screw, the car will be in a good place.

I knew this car was cursed the day I drove it back from South Carolina for the original upstate owner.

There is always something nit picky wrong with this damn car. It like to be beaten like the slut whore it is but the damn thing has car herpese with frequent “breakouts”

This car is worth less than $1000, I will buy it for $800 when you are ready to sell it.

Sounds pretty much spot on man. I love the car, but in terms of reliability, its just not there. But holy shit, its fun to beat on it when its running well :lol
