| Thanks Jay.
I dont have money for an SR or for a mechanic unless nakers wants to give me his and install it you know that christmas shit give to the needy, cause i need an SR!!!
I figure ill do it myself to save some money and just to learn how to do it, and kevin if its not to much trouble do you think youll be able to let me borrow that valve spring compressor????
Well i also gotta check my compression who knows its white smoke so head gasket could be bad, or maybe rings might be fried, i dont think so cause it still runs normal, its just that i leave a trail of smoke under heavy throttle, but when it ideling it doesnt smoke, who knows maybe its possesed.........
They also told me to put a cap full of brake fluid in my engine, that will rubberize all the seals....Has anyone ever heard of this??? | |

| no, but they do have stuff you can buy at like autozone or whatever that helps "refurbish" seals and "critical" engine components. Shit works pretty good if its just a little trouble. | |
