needing some help
12 years ago
Well lately my car has been making some strange noises and we did not know why it was making these strange noises and after some investigating, we learned that over time, the timing belt has started to stretch and in the process of this, the car has gone seriously out of time and no longer runs properly. right now a ODB reader is giving off a chamber 1 and chamber 3 miss fire and we are unable to really drive the car because we might damage the car even farther then what it might be already.
Shopping around for parts only leads to sticker shock and this is where this comes into play. what I need is a new timing belt kit and those run in the hundreds .
on the other hand i can for go the kit and just get a timing belt and water pump which are the two major parts that need to be replaced and possibly a new thermostat and have that replaced. the parts along are ball parking around 150 and the labor would be another 230 bucks to have it done by one of the local auto repair places. i would have this done by my mate but there are some tricky parts and i dont feel safe having him do these major parts himself.
Now the problem arises that i dont make the income to do this and ballance my living sitiuation and my bills. theres no possible way. so, if anyone out there has read any of my stories and felt that they liked them and possibly wanted a commission, please contact me via note and we can work something out, i seriously need to get my car fixed as its my only way to work and i cant continously rely on my room mate to keep taking me to and from work. plus if an emergency were to happen and i would need the car and it remains in its current state, i would be seriously SOL
