Well I had to travel back from MA this morning to get my parts and car together to arrive at Carlisle at noon Thursday. Get in t he Jeep aaannnnnnnd: Check Engine Light. So, off to a technian. three hours and $240.00 later and our plans are getting dashed. To be safe, I cancelled our room for Thuesday night. So I might be there tomorrow.
We intend to bring the Barracuda convertible and put a price tag on it. It'll be in the Car Corral...
I feel yer pain man.....
Yesterday I found that the starter in the Barracuda was going bad...so rather than risk it going altogether on the trip I ran out and sourced a reman one and did that job....$123 there. Then today I got home and found that my truck (our chase vehicle ) had a coolant leak...broken plastic filler neck (built into the hose itself).....again more tracking down parts, and another $150. Just finished that job up at 10:30......I can say that working on the fish is WAAAAAAY easier. LOL My hands are lunch meat now. Ouch.
Sheesh....I hope thats IT as far as issues with vehicles....i just want to enjoy!
I do plan on taking a floor jack, jack stands and tools "just in case" though.
