Well, I guess I asked for this. I put a new stereo in the little red car last night, and today while running errands, I start hearing a terribly loud knock. By the time I get home, it sounds like a bag of marbles in a dryer. I've yet to pull my oil pan, but I'm willing to bet my geo just drew its last breathe.

I don't expect it to be anything minor. Very loud knock, oil pressure dropped unless I was giving it gas. Stalled at idle. Fired right back up. By the time I parked it, sounded like something was loose and bouncing around the engine. Like marbles in a dryer.

Open up the fan/AC system and :shit in it gooood, use dog doodles if you dont wanna put yours up in there. Put it all back together and wait till he turns on is AC. Yummy

So, I'll have an update on my situation tomorrow hopefully. I already have it temporarily settled, but I want pictures to accompany the post.
