i just need to vent a bit... don't mind me
things that failed
- e brake, i knew about that, the shoes are toast
- front sway bar links, didn't know about them, but i had a look and they do need replacing
things that they let slide
- rear brake pads are very close
- rear struts are completely shot
- fuel leak in the sending hose, i had no idea about this, the mechanic couldn't pinpoint the leak but it smells like fuel around the mid point of the line, under the driver door, its not pissing fuel yet, but i'm sure it will eventually
so yeah, i got to buy about 200$ in parts, install them and go back, then i got to pay more to get my manitoba plates, this sucks!!! getting everything transfered over will end up costing me more than i make in 2 weeks. its gonna be a cat food kinda month
i know i'm getting off relatively easy, but still, i'm pretty pissed
