funny test drive story a bit o/t
Post was slow today and I can't sleep so here's a little story fuh yuh,
I went out hatch searching not too long ago down here in FL and had myself an interesting time... The car was alright, 91 dx 5 speed...113,000 miles....a few dents and dings, the hood did not line up... THEN...we started it up... It started right up but alot of smoke was coming out from under the car....white smoke as far as I could see...he claimed the motor was just rebuilt and the "valves needed to settle" and then the smoke will go away ??? Never heard of that...but I am no mechanic... and apparently neither was he...took it for a spin...felt sluggish...he would not let me drive it either...had no plates but I am not going to buy a car unless I drive it... As I am lookin under the hood, I see him go for the oil fill cap and start to take it off (car is running)...I backed up as he said...see you can see how clean it is in here...etc..as oil spattered all over him...must have been overfilled... THEN....he takes off the radiator cap while the car is still running!! It also sprays all over him... that was about the time I offered him 900 for it and he laughed at me....so I laughed at him with is oily antifreeze stained ass and got back in the 91 std and called it a day. I wish him the best of luck but this thing has been in the autotrader for 3 months!! He wants 2 g's...never get it....

Yeah, when I saw him go for the rad cap...I jumped back a few feet...he didn't even look surprised when he got showered with coolant! It is a shame...car had potential too! But if he doing stuff like this...I can't imagine the car was taken care of...he probably puts water in the gas tank and oil in the windshield washer res..
