i believe in the brick karma philosophy to an extent...
and i think i did something way bad, i took my volvo to walmart because i didnt have time to change the oil myself. level is fine, and i supplied them with a Mann filter, but i think the lube techs were mean to him. Mike just hasnt been the same yet. First, the headlights get left on at the rennisance festival, even though i specifically remember turning them off, i think mike turned them on. Then one morning doig 75 on 290 on my merry way to the old schoolhouse, the old exhaust slips off of the header, and this happens alot, not anymore, but did, so i figured i could wait to a gas station, and that the resonator orings would hold it up, as a little straightpipe never hurt anyone. so i was wrong. I hear all hell breaking loose under the brick pull over, and step on the hot cat, now conveniently located under the drivers door YEEEEEEEEEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW! so i call my dad at 6 in the AM to come get the remains of my exhaust system, he does, so i drive too school and to get exhaust parts of only a downtube, a little noisty, but got the job done. I assemble a new syustem concisting of downtube-cat-cherry bomb-downturn, sounds goot, looks good, and dont fall of no more. well all until after school 2 days after. pop, no va. here i am with an angry girlfriend in the car, so we decide to help our friends with dead battery by rolling brick over for a jump. and it works, for them. Girlfriends dad brings gas, still no go. call dad with a towing strap and we pull home 3 miles. get it home, a shot of ether, and it runs, ok, so i goto see a friends kittens about a block away. runs for 12 miles to goto walgreens, and at the stopsign in front of my house, i kill to see if it will restart, and guess what, it doesnt, so i tow strap home and thar she blows. I know those walmart guys called him a pos, or insulted, or werent as careful as on a new car, and ive tried apoligizing, bnut it just didnt work. i got him a carwash after the oil change to even things up, but i guess mike is still mad? u guys have any ideas to re karma-lize my brick?
