LOL Ren didn't get there till 8:40....i was gonna get a beer, but figured that would be bad since i'd fallen asleep in my car..... I wasn't in the best of moods either...my doctor at work is an asshole and it's been rough this week.......lookin for a new job..hopin to stay vet, but i can sell autoparts, i worked at AZ for 3yrs

09-16-2005, 10:59 AM
He's the Chief of Staff and owns the hospital.....i was transfered per his request... i told the lead yesterday that it wasn't worth drivin all the way out there to be treated like this.....especailly when i'm not gettin paid more....she said she'd look into it..but i'm tryin to find another job.

Seriously though, I'm going to need help if my car does need a little work. I only have $150 to work on her with and i've been pouring money out for my dog..scripts...special food...ugh.... Hopefully there's nothin wrong.........she's got 104,000 miles and i know it's timing belt time and all that crap, but I don't have the money for that right now......... the a/c needs to be recharged, apparently has a slow leak.....so I dunno what i'm gonna do.

BTEC
09-16-2005, 11:10 AM
what kinda car do u have? what does a/c feel like? lol. i took my a/c off last year sometime, after my compressor bolts broke off in the a/c bracket. lol!!

09-16-2005, 11:12 AM
98 Civic EX 1.6 Vtec.......the a/c is cold, sometimes......but mostly is not, it's cool, but not enough to cool the car if it's semi warm, even with the sunroof propped. Like yesterday it was blowin that coldness smoke in the morning then in the evening it was warm.....it sucks

when i had my 1.5l engine in it used to do the same thing. i just evecuated the a/c system and recharged it and it was freezing. HONDA POWER, :goodjob: . i guess if u need some help with it ill think about it, let me know when. and give me a chance to REALLY think about it too. :D
