Horrible News!!!!!!!
I was "burping" the cooling system after a full system flush and cleaning, and new thermostat. I went to drive up on a bank to get the radiator higher than the heater core and "CRUNCH"!!!!! my bodykit caught the ground. and ripped almost off... I have tons of luck alright. but all of it is bad! i'll post pics when it gets daylight. now i have some bodywork to do whoopee

its been below -20 -25 in the mornings (with windchill)for the past few days. you cant even go outside w/o something covering your ears and fingers. its weird b/c we have had a very warm winter up until about 3 weeks ago. now it is all cold? Last edited by burton51m; 02-08-2007 at 10:48 PM. |
