nah lol i would really like to get into working on cars more, cuz right now all i'm good for is taking interior stuff apart and putting on head/tail lights and body kit stuff. but with where i'm at right now, i don't have the time, and where i live technically i'm not allowed to do any vehicle work in our parking lot...which sucks

i'm separating from the military cuz i decided it's not really what i want to do, and after i get my papers i can appeal for partial GI bill benefits, but unless it's an honorable discharge i prolly wont get it. only reason it's not an honorable for me is cuz i didnt finish my 6 year contract. but i still have a crap-ton of money put away for schooling, just not 30K lol i will be going to CNM shortly (depending on my grant, i might end up paying myself but it aint bad) to get my EMT license to be a firefighter, just tryin to find a garage in the mean time that would accept me as an eager-to-learn mechanincs protegé.....btw having no luck with that =/

my guy told me yesterday that he would have to disconnect the air filter stuff that's connected to the front, then disconnect the tranny, then lift the engine completely out...is that true? like i figure that it cant be extremely hard, just the fact that we would have to yank the whole motor out of the car for it. and i think that with that coming into play, i'm gonna get charged out the ass, so i would rather have someone teach me how to do it, so that way it gets done and i understand how it goes.
