My daughter tells me her old boy friend is coming over and has a little car trouble .
He bought a Saturn with 200k on it for 7 grand.
He pulls up...it about 10:30 at night..the mosquitos are insane.
But being the hardcore wrench that I am I go outside and I ask whats wrong with the car.
Ok Here it is....the only way he can get the car started is by jacking it up ,crawl all the way undr it from the front and stick a screw driver on the starter motor poles to hot wire it. He's been doing this for two weeks?!??!# "Did you eat paint chips when you were growing up?"
So I do a quick look at it ,fuses..bla bla bla...the mosquitos dive in like the Battle of Midway...I let him stay the night and and tell him I'll fix it in the morning
Next morning he jacks it up with the little chinese stamped out jack and procedes to get under the car...with out a jack stand....I am like ,number one rule ..always a jack stand ......so he explains to me how the car came off the jack earlier in the week and broke his tooth........I mean you have to crawkl all the way under this car to get to the starter motor..hes lucky he didint fricken die
Anyways after trouble shootin it looks like it must be the ignition switch which he didinot have money to fix so I put a push button starter on it for him. Changed his life. oh YA HE WAS HAPPY IT GOT GOOD GAS MILEAGE CAUSE HE WOULD LEAVE IT RUN WHILE HE WENT INTO A RESAURANT TO EAT.....
