basically I should just buckle down and figure out a good chunk of this myself ... The_Muted_Grimaud Send a noteboard - 19/01/2012 05:43:04 AM
Some of it is obviously out of my league, and some possibly unecessary, but things like scraping corrosion off the terminals should be easy. Actually I'm going to bring it back to my parents/brothers town in MA, he does a lot with cars. I should have him teach me.

I just wasn't ready for an 1800$ bill to be pushed on me, it make me kind of upset (especially since my last oil change, they pushed a 1300$ bill on me for all break services and other things they did.)

Honestly, I wanted to rant and rave and ... and now I'm worried every time I drive, like today, I was on the ocean parkway going towards Fire Island (beautiful place) and it was windy windy. My old boxcar was drifting horribly, and part of me was thinking ... am I about to dive into a sand dune at 50 mph because I didn't fix the control arms?

Now that i think about it though, I do usually have to turn the steering wheel a degree or so to the left to keep the car going straight, kind of keep nudging it back into a straight line.
