This old car of mine!

Thanks to both of my sons, and my third son, which is my mechanic, lol.   He recently installed a heater coil, which was a lot of work, because, he had to remove the dash board, "steering column, etc.  "Lot of work"!  Not even 6 months ago!  Yikes!

 

 

I am a little mechanically inclined, but, I'm too old, to be working on my car now.

"I helped assemble Dodge Ram pick-ups for 14 years, had several different jobs, building that truck"!

But, some basic things, I will do!

This fix was basic, and I could have done it, but, I thought it was my sensor, O2, or my catalytic converter, but, it was just the coil pack.

lmaoooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Now, when I had the plugs and wires replaced, last week, I should have changed the coil pack, also, that would have been a tune up for real, and change the fuel injectors, but, I didn't.

 

Lesson learned.  Cost me a little bit of money too, because, I thought it had something to do with the fuel, so I put some premium gas in my car, lol, and some fuel injection cleaner, lmaooooooooooooooooooo.

Not! The issue.

lmaoooooooooooooooooooooo.

So, I called my mechanic today.  He couldn't come to my house, so, I told him, what was going on, I was like, "it's making a popping sound, and I have little power?  What's the deal?  He said, " coil pack", lmaooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Bingo!

He called the part I needed, my oldest son bought it for me, and my youngest son installed it.

 

Back to work tomorrow!

 

Party

"Thank you guys"!

P.S.  I need a new vehicle, for real.  I replaced the motor, last year.  Now, it seems like, everything that I had changed on my motor that went out, needs changing on this motor!  I can't!  I need a new vehicle, for real, for real!

And, yes, earlier today, when I thought my son was coming with the part, me and my youngest son, went outside, and unplugged the battery and took the old coil pack out, so when my oldest son come with the part, we would be ready! I thought I was going to have time to go play, but, nope, he just came at 10 pm.
Too late for me to play. Oh well, tomorrow is another day, 2 chance, and 2 choices.
I hope I get a win on pick 3 or pick 4!
