Ok.

Started off the day by changing plugs, the old ones looked trashed..

Found a vacuum line going to the bottom of the intake when I began to flush the HE fluid. Great. Meth?

The fluid was mud colored, was mixed with green and it turns out I have a dead IC pump. Wonderful.

The engine coolant looks to be in the same condition. Yay.

And to top it all off the trans is making strange sounds and dripping fluid.




I don't have a job and I'm in school right now, I can't pay for all of this. I think its time to sell.

I've only had it for 10,000 miles

 

if u bought it used u probably just bought someone elses problems

 

sux dude, thats why you gotta inspect the **** out of used cars, Ive learned my lesson with used cars. If you cant fix em dont buy em.

 

let it be a lesson. don't get a car unless you can afford the payments, insurance, and any/all repairs that may come along with it. don't buy on impulse, really crunch the numbers. but sorry to hear you're having so many problems.

 

I have an I/C pump somewhere just waiting for a new home. As for the coolant, don't put dexcool back in it. Use something like the Prestone Dexcool compatible stuff.

 

x 2 DId you get the car used?

 

There was a thread warning about the pumps failing on scs (psycosteve?). This site actually can come in handy one in a while. Everyone should go check theirs now.

 

Yeah, used. She definitely needs some TLC, a few hidden problems..

I'm going to get her straightened out though.

Drained a whopping 6oz. of gear oil out last night. Need to get that looked at soon
