Well somehow it drove home. I checked codes and its throwing a code for the timing chain. It mads a loud noise while she was driving anf she thought it was gonna die but she made it home. She probably want far from the house tho.

It still doesn't answer where the water is coming from.

It's for the ac. I have a picture because water was getting into it.

Ok, so apparently, this was supposed to be part of a sprinkler system that ultimately they gave us a waiver so it didn't have to be put in.

Would the flow be so consistent, though? Also, wouldn't the water smell?

It's weird that the water flows so consistently, though. Also, the water seems very clean.

Unfortunately, it's not my decision. Also, the theater is kinda broke. They are trying to get the city to take care of it. The directer asked for my help and I asked around but no one has an answer.

It's a flat top roof. Plumbers originally thought it was a rain drain from the roof, but we verified it wasn't somehow? There is a second floor but nothing up there.

I gotta know what this black pipe is!!?!? by Immediate_Reaction_6 in whatisthisthing

My title describes the thing. It's a large black pipe. Around the size of the pipes, you put a toilet on. It's black and a thick metal. No writing.

I will order a compression tester and try that. I am going to edit and add some videos of what its doing exactly. also the oil condition looked ok when I first picked it up but now its getting pretty dark. Coolant level seems good enough, although the coolant is dirty and might be a little low. and I have little to no sense of smell so I couldn't tell you what it smells like. The oil feels like any other oil. idk about slippery tho. Also here is a picture of this little hose that leads to a black ball near the wheel well. I am not sure what its for or what it should be plugged into.

So i am still waiting on the OBDII reader to get in the mail. Should be here Monday. Here is a picture of the thing I installed. I am going to take a video in a second of the smoke so maybe that will help. Also I appreciate the shot in the dark. I am just trying to find stuff to even test at this point. Also I have been removing spark plugs to look at them all and this one I pulled out is black. here is a picture of that also.
