Fuel injectors arnt as easy as they say

Well one of my injectors was bad so i bought a bosch injector and toook the car to school to work on it and well the injector bottle necks near the top of the injector and it broke clean off and while trying to dig it out the injector falls into the head right ontop of the valve and so we were gonna try to fish it out through the sparkplug hole but i remembered that it doesnt inject into the cylinder itself but on the back of the valve so then we take the cam shaft out and a lifter out of the he… Continue

It's an 85, and been through hell and back. Yes I do have more, but I just haven't been on here for a while. I need to spend more time on here, but can't get my ass off of myspace long enough.

Good luck on your tattoo. I'm sure it will look awsome. Nice license plate. I like that.

The H2O show was awsome and the beach wasn't half bad either. I got a Revo stage 1 chip upgrade there. It added about 50 horses and uped my boost. It's the coolest thing ever. I hope by this time next year my car will be ready for stage 2 upgrade. Still, I'm sorry you missed the show. Hope you can go next year.

I really hope you can get your car running again. Yeah theres a lot that I wanna do to my car. The first thing I want to do is lower it. The lower the better. Then I was thinking about a chip for more horse power, but everything is so expensive if you want good stuff. Hope to talk to you soon.
