Not a good day for Beast Man
Edited on Fri Dec-03-04 09:18 AM by Beware the Beast Man
Well, I think the head gasket blew on the Beastmobile, and my radiator's been leaking fluid like a sieve. Not even Stop Leak is doing the job anymore. Those of you that have had this problem know that it runs about $10 for the part and $1,000 for labor, which is about $1,010 I don't have at the moment. This sucks. I need hugs and validation right now. I feel so frail.
At least I have the day off...

2. Sorry man, I've been there
Except when my head gasket went, it took the engine with it.

5. That sucks!
I've had more care problems than I care to remember. I had this one car that I would have a major malfunction with about every other month but I didn't have enough money to get a new(er) car.

I truly feel your pain. I hope you find a solution. :hug:

6. From transportation to travesty!
I know the sad beater song myself! The dying stead is aching to be shot.

Here's hoping that you can resurrect her. Have you considered doing it yourself?

Do you have any local High Schools that have an auto class? Sometimes they do work cheap as part of the training, but it might take some time.

9. I can barely put gas in the tank, yet alone do it myself.
But I'll give the Vo Tech idea some consideration.

Maybe you'll be visited by the jolly radiator elves who will fix your car for you in the middle of the night whilst you slumber. }(
