Default I hate previous owners

I hate previous owners of cars! My car has had so many "rigged up" things done on it it's not even funny, I am slowly but surely replacing all the mess ups.. so far I have fixed everything (that I have found) but a couple of the things were the radio was rewired and instead of using connectors or electrical tape or something guess what he used.. scotch tape lol yes the clear plastic scotch tape. Well I guess he liked probing wires as well because when I replaced the injectors on my car today I pull out the injector plugs and the wires literally just break. So I had the joy today of rewiring all of my injector wires yippie. At least it's done though and I have one less "rigged up" thing on my car. The only thing I have left to replace is the intake which he made out of PVC pipe lol but i have a new one on the way that should be here tomorrow.

Since I've had mine for so long (coming up on 8 years ), I didn't have any problems when I got the Talon.


Now whoever buys it.....that's another story.

Join the club.

If/When I sell my car I am doing a background check on the person to make sure they take care of it. It is sad when people ghetto rig so much shit on the car and others have to replace it.

When I bought my 91, it had a 22 spline tranny and transfer case, non turbo ecu, two different halves of a rod bearing on rod#1 and I forgot what else, a bunch of other bullshit not to mention the rats nest of wires behind the dash and the silicone sealed windshield which leaked. I think driving it home, I had the a pillar fall off and hit me in the head.

Mine had all three vaccum lines on the intake manifold cut and plugged with an old fuse, a cork, and a piece of copper wire. And some gay ass blue LEDs in the headlight housings. I find more and more little half-assed things the longer i own the car.
