Just My Luck



Thats what i feel like doing.

Hurricane Frances comes, takes out my trees, trapes me in my house for 2 days.
Rips the phone, cable, and power lines out of my house and off the pole at the street.
Tree is across my driveway and im stuck.
I just got power yesterday!!! 12 days without it.

while my power was out, of my 4 vehicles.......

One blew a head gasket (hyundi)
One fuel pump died (lincon)
One radiator sprung a leak (acura)

and now i fixed the radiator in my CL and the AC goes out
I just want to beat on something

Could the AC dying have anything to do with the man puting in the new radiator???
The last few days i have been hearing some funny noise comming from the passenger side floorboard. Kind of a gurgling? Hope its not the heater core?

well thats my luck
anyonehave any ideas as to the AC problem?
thanks i needed to vent

yes he could, since he could have made a small puncture in the condenser which mounts right infront of the rad , sometimes smallest holes will drain out the whole gas ..

perhaps they helped to decraease fading after severy stops, but i doubt that stock sized rotors made your car "stop on a dime"

it was more likely the new pads that were installed

sucks man, hope you get everything going again. I just had my exhaust fixed at the car dealer in ocala, it was making an awlful noise and all it was was a tip. Do you go down to buc. jenkins acura? Brad and sabrina in service are great, they even give me loaners.

I go there when i have to, their service is great. I had an rsx for almost a month while they worked on my car.

I have had the tips welded so they would stop rattling, this is my entire exhaust system!!!
it moves like 2 inches, vibrates realy fast, at 1750 rpms, its nuts

im just going to do headders all the way back to the tips, all new
and it it still rattles im going to set the damn car on fire
