This year hasn't been a good one for me. While I was overseas, My humvee I was on patroll in got blowed up. I lived and I have all my limbs and everything. I am like a walking hardware store though with all the metal I have in me now. The worst part of the explosion for me though was the head injury. I still wasn't completely better from the last one and now a bomb threw a rock so hard into my head that it shattered. The rock shattered, not my head. Although it felt like my head was pulverized. The Dr. said that I got somthing like dain bramage. But despite all that I did do a few things right. when I got home I realized that my current engine had seen it better days. I looked online for one and found it only 20 min from me. I checked it out to see if it ran. The car wasn't drivable though. I purchased everything attached to the subframe and more. I replaced coil pack, plugs, wires, hoses, water pump, ball joints, axels, and a lot more. I was trying to do it all right. I may have missed a few small things. I don't remember much though. I diddn't know that I should of checked out the splines though. I at least got it to run. Not bad I think for having just suffered massive head trauma. Now when I go home on Christmass leave I have a few things to do. Thanks for all the info.
