i was hand cleaning my engine today, went to go start it up, running REALLY rough. shut it off. got my dad. he said pop the hood, i said why, he said look for squirrels. i told him i was under the hood today. he said open it anyways. i started it and showed him, running really rough. he wiggled wires and one of the spark plug wires came right out, he put it back in and ran fine. so now i know waht a dead cylinder feels like, made my car run like sh*t. just thought you'd like to hear my story.

 

Funny thing happened to my s10 today...I noticed some one smashed into the front end pretty hard. Now I need new bumper mounts, grill, and my hood and pass fender are all out of line. Hopefully its not too much money just bending and stuff. At least its not very noticeable so I dont have to fix it right away. But when look at it hurts . I didn't need this in the middle of moving

Van- take off 2 sparkplug wires and thats how slow my truck is! Well almost, its a 4cyl manual and its alot slower then the max. But its cool, manual rocks. Hopefully the max will be manual soon too. And the s10 should have a 4.3L v6 soon...

Sorry just had to rant...

I found a live mouse under my hood the other day. my car shuttered more after that.

 

check for chewed-through wires, this happened to my sisters 1988 Ford Thunderbird, but hey it was a ford.

 

so i was at the airport ready to fly somewhere and they told me to get on the airplane. so i was like "why? i'm already at the airport".

 

did you guys see the pimp my ride where there was a rat living in the girls pacer? that was gross...but yeah dude, if i were you id do a complete tune up on that car asap...well as soon as you get your license there buddy.

squirels LOVE motorcraft wires, heard it happen quite a few times from customers.
