So most of you know about my 300 dollar pot-hole/tow/blown tire/bent rim incedent. The fact that the wife and I are broke and have a baby on the way doesnt help matters…
so…another story
I’d love to fucking jump off a bridge.
I bought the wife an 89 acclaim from a master tech that i used to work with at dodge. Car had a rebuilt tranny and motor just 60,000 miles ago. My wife drives this, since we got rid of our cherokee.
So she’s happily driving along today to her first doctors visit for the baby. Shes cruising down 79, when the car begins to hesitate and smoke like a bitch from the tailpipe…white smoke.
So she’s on the side of the road, and she calls me at work…so i have to leave and go get her and take her to the doctors…I also had an interview for a part time job that I had to cancel. So from the sounds of it, i thought she ran out of oil and the engine siezed. So i had a quart of oil in the car and i put it in and started it. It started up and continued to smoke and shudder…so…
I took the wife to the doctors, came back with my brother -in-law, and added 3 more quarts of oil. Car started right up and continued to smoke and shutter…so i put it in drive and it cuts out on me. So we come home. I get home and she tells me that the phone company called…they are threatening to shut off the phone because we didnt pay our AOL charges. We dont even have fucking America Online. We pay 50 bucks a month for comcast digital internet access. What the fuck is that???
So that was my day.
Sorry for the rant.
oh, and if anybody knows a cheap tow-truck driver let me know. my aim is whitehotcl. My car is off the crafton/robinson exit 60A coming north on 79.
Oh and if I sound like i dont know anything about cars…I dont…my brother-in-law called his brother who is a tech, and he said its the timing…thats why the smoke is white, and why there was gas coming out of the tailpipe???
is theis true?
Sorry Matt!! Hope things get better for ya!
