so tired...worked on the car till 10.30 pm last night. at the office now...sooo sleepy.
more pics for everybody. the ammount of rusted screws and incorrect bolts are starting to piss me off. our local garage/workshop ppl should be more competent when it comes to doing their job.
although i do notice most of them don't become car mechanics because they like it. well, it seems that way. i bet what makes a good mechanic is not only his/her technical background, it's also the interest in cars that makes the job that much better and rewarding. but i bet none of them give a shit. they just want to go on with their lives customer after customer providing shoddy service.
i digress.
smelly plug cables. why smelly? because when the engine is hot enough, it starts to melt the silicone and causes a smelly smoky substance to enter the car while i was driving it back home the other day
compressor and heat exchanger assy removed
do not adjust your monitor, the heat exchanger/cooling coil was shaped like this when i took it out
bug-eyed low lights
itchified, so i decided to remove the headlight flange thingy. look what the rust worms did to it!
ye ol' fuses
ye ol' fuse connector
hidden compartment at the engine bay firewall leading under the dashboard area. i have no idea whatever the hell that place is for
random pics
that's all i've got for today. price of an engine crane is about 200-300 ringgit...very tempting.
