So i went to an event for italian cars this sunday
too bad it was really shitty weather so there weren't as many people as expected, and i had to drive slow..
but i had some fun sliding around :v:
luckily my dad found out how his own camera worked just in time to catch me passing by a few times

My brother has the worst luck ever.
That Clio I got him? In two months he's sheared a driveshaft, had a child run out infront of him denting the bonnet and some stupid gang smash one of his windows.
Stressed.
Coolant leak fixed, Was just the hose pictured and not the head gasket like i was worrying.
Dad keeps guilt-tripping me like he's the master of cars all of a sudden. My parents have no faith in my knowledge and skills. Particularly my mom who thinks my 240 will blow up the minute I unscrew something.
I just want my 240 to work the way it's meant to without getting jipped by a dishonest shop

Are they going to sell impounded/taken vehicles too?
I technically have 16k in an account i could throw around, All the taxi companies are standing by with stacks of money to buy the vics for taxi service though.

Fucking birds need to stop shitting on my car. Either my car gets melted by the 100+ degree weather, or birds shit on my car. I swear the next time i see shit on my car I'm going to go on a bird genocide

What the fuck?
its acutally posted in my house as a reference to everyone
Draw on a google map. Its way easier to understand..
Makes perfect sense. Don't park in the red spaces, green spaces are okay.
Seems to be less about legal parking and more about not getting your car shit on.
I hate my street, my car is constantly covered in tree sap and other shit that makes it look like i've never washed it. Add on to this that it's raining on and off every three days and that our season pass carwash card ran out.

Stop parking underneath pine trees?
My whole driveway is overshadowed by trees except on the verry ends(circle drive, the regular drive is occupied by the parents.(and also just as tree covered, they just don't give a shit)).
Need money.
Money to feed the car
Fixed the hesitation! As it turns out, it isn't the fuel delivery, it was actually the EGR.
What the EGR does is recycle a portion of the exhaust gases back into the intake to be re-burned.
What this does is help with emissions a bit. Now the problem was that the sensor to control the EGR was bad, and so it sent in waaay too much exhaust gas making the fuel/air mix far too lean.
So fuck yearrr $65 later after putting the new sensor in it accelerates easily and seems to be getting considerably more fuel economy!

sending too much exhaust gas would make it rich. Exhaust gas richen the mixture, not the other way around.
If you remove a EGR system, you get higher EGT on the cylinder with the egr cooler near it and a leaner mixture when in the egr operating range
Ah, then in that case I haven't any idea what im talking about.
But anyway, it works. So i'm happy lol

Couple years ago I was working on my car with the top down. Went inside for some water, came back out and there was bird shit on the inside of the door. I lost it. I went inside, grabbed a BB pistol, and came back out and cleared the f'n place out.
One time a bird shit on me when i was playing kick ball at school. Fucking birds.
Fuck Foxbodys, and fuck the people selling them. There all shady as hell. Im just going to fix my goddamn Cobra and get on with it. I hate people.

Aww
what happened :(
I can't find something thats clean appearence wise, with a decent engine in it. Everything I find is good body, bad engine, or bad engine good body. What I find that is actually good, has little qwarks like
"Oh, it doesn't start on occasion due to the cam I put in it, you have to let it cooldown for an hour or so and try agian"
"The car is perfectly sound" as I can see smoke coming from the engine bay, and there is oil dripping under the car.
Stupid people waste my time.
