My sirry night.

Post by KERAZY » Sat Aug 19, 2006 4:26 am

just knocked off 'fixin' my car. bout 2:15am.

what happened was, today i was washin my car, and i went to start it and it start. looked in the carby... dry. so its not flooded. battery wasnt dead. then i remembered how gay and noisy my fuel pump was, and how it wasnt there in the pre-ignition stage.

took it apart, checked the fuses, nothin. chucked a multimeter onto the fuses, i got power. chucked it onto the fuel pump and it didnt have power, so with my trusty father at the ready, we took off the sills, and just as i was struggling pulling off the front drivers side sill, dad goes 'ohhh no! shit jason we did all that for nothing!' im like 'why what?'. he goes 'when we went down to look at the car, do you remember what the guy said?' and he points at a little button/knob. 'thats an immobilizer, it shuts off power to the fuel pump!'. I cacked it laughin!

it started to rain, so we went for a drive. front wheels in the rain :D deadly ass burnouts. so the night wasnt a total failure...

my name is dale kerrigan, and that was my story.

hahahaha ah well. might not be on the topic, but i rolled my go kart today at 70 km/h! frieken crazy. went into a corner sideways, went into it a little too hot (70 km/h) and had to lock up the brakes, spun out and the rear wheels scraped along an embankment and dug in, tipped over, i was stuck there. people, if ever you're gonna get rally harnesses, go the Sabelt. saved my life!!!
