I know what you mean. When stuff happens to me or one of my cars, it seems to happen all at once.

Just keep a positive attitude and it will all work out in the end.

I let the IROC sit for almost a month because it was not running right. Finally found out the problem was my MSD box. Disconnected it and it ran fine for about 2 weeks. Now it is acting up again.

Yeah, my car is totally jacked. I'm no expert, but when the engine starts making really loud noises, there is something wrong. Mine has been sitting for 2 weeks now. IT SUCKS!

I know what you mean. I just sank another $200 in steering components. Might help me pick up a .1 not having to wrestle the steering wheel down the track though.

Could it be a bad/dirty/broken ground? I see there's a pattern.

Nah.

I don't know what's wrong with the fan switch. I'm taking it back on Friday to the guy who put it in.

The monitor gets ****ty reception for some reason. I'll pull the receiver out AGAIN.

The ALDL cable probably got knocked loose by the car wash guys. I'll get up under the dash and hook it up again.

Just getting tired of revisiting all this stuff.
