Two cents

Well I had made some threads about a no start issue I was having and had a few responses out of over 2k views. It seems like people only use this site to get help for themselves although there are the dedicated few that do a lot to help. Now that mine is running again and I do consider myself a pretty good mechanic I will be helping as often as I can. Mine had a bad ecm and the gas ruined from sitting as well as the fuel pump, strainer, etc. SO changed all and even discovered someone made a fuel pump door but thank them because at least it wasn't a hack job and they used steel line compression fittings. Also want to thank the few that did reply and cant wait to have my baby back as my daily driver.

Re: Two cents

it's kinda like old school hot rodding. when you didnt know something, you asked a fellow gearhead. and when the oportunity to help other arrives, it's freely given back.
