WTF I don't get it. This car is about to have a new owner if it don't start acting right. I hate to trade it but i'm to that point right now Oh and the stupid radiator fluid tank decides to spring a leak too!!!!!!!!! 1998 CSVT #844 Born May 9,1997 Silver n Blue B&M Short throw shifter Eibach springs 4 Memphis PR 12" www.cardomain.com/ride/2273778
