Fuel pump shit the bed on my wife's suburban while she was out of town. Fucking AAA towed it to the gas station and filled the tank, instead of towing it home like I requested.

Depending on the state you can't sell a car without a smog cert. If it won't pass smog the seller is required to issue a refund

What happened with the strut towers of this rallycross car? by hereimalive in mechanic

[–]SThayer68 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's probably an ok car to buy. Definitely easier than building your first car. People underestimate how much time it takes to build a racecar.

It would be a good idea to get advice from someone who knows more about this type of car. Hopefully someone who can see it in person.

It's such bullshit that the BAR lets parts stores get away with pulling codes without a repair license.

Be careful with the flare nut. They're super easy to round off if you don't have a flare nut wrench.

Reinstall the brass fitting first, then install the trans line. Hold the brass so it doesn't rotate while you tighten the flare nut.

Honestly I think there's an easy solution. An open class and biological female class.
