Piece of shit's going to cost me 9500$ to get a refurbished valve body in. That's what you get for buying local I guess.

Laughs in 46RE

My very first loan was to get that :marseytrain: fixed. Got stuck in snow, pulled out, then made it most of the way home before I caught bae slippin'.

By the time I got it in my driveway, it was beyond fricked. The next morning I put it in Reverse and the column shift fell to the bottom with no resistance.

Jesus frick! I didn't have it that bad thank god, it just sticks to fourth and won't get up for money or love. Did you need a whole new box?

I was 18 at the time so I assume it was a typical rebuild. $2,880.84.
The following year, I tried replacing head gaskets for some reason and messed it up enough that it was more economical to get a replacement engine. I miss that van.

But darn, $10k? What kind of vehicle are we talking about here? I went to Ford to diagnose a hard shift on an 08 Fusion (FNR5) and a total replacement would be $6,200 dealer labor rate.

Looking back on it 15 years later, I was pretty dumb. The block itself was probably fine.

I don't remember why I dug into it in the first place. Minor oil burning was a common issue on that engine series (Chrysler LA / Magnum).
Bought replacement heads on Craigslist, learned they were warped, installed them anyway.
After installing and torquing, took them back off and back on reusing the same torque-to-yield bolts rather than a new set.
Didn't have a small enough torque wrench for the rockers, used loctite instead to keep them from loosening.

After all was said and done it ran but burned a lot of oil and the oil pressure light kept coming on. Never determined if it was the sensor or an actual pressure issue.

I'd link the videos of the end result but it was pretty cringeworthy seeing myself trying to play mechanic

If you do spill the tea on that botched repair, I'd love to see it. We all gotta start somewhere, you know?

My biggest cringe is both my choice in music overlay, and the fact I was shirtless pretty much the entire time. Literally a dumb teenager

lol Came here to say "gay" but got a huge chuckle just like with LLM's boomer jokes.

Well done, sir. It's Sunday Funday and by Funday I mean waiting for excedrine migraine to kick in from the booze hangover.

The secret to hangovers is to keep drinking. I haven't seen a Sunday or Monday night drunkposting thread here in a while, you strags had better up your game.

Automatic transmission is for women, children and blacks if the car they boost happens to be one.

See, I'd drive manual but I'm mostly a "from point A to point B" sort of driver and I don't have the free time to suck all the peepees I encounter on the way.

It's a great basketball repellent, you only lose the radio instead of the whole car.

Being a "point A to point B" driver is a symptom of driving an automatic, not the other way around.
