Didn't you ask us for help? We gave you a suggestion and you ridiculed it then asked for more help with the same thing. Yet you still didn't take our advice but hey if you want to well leave you our numbers and pick you up when your cars broke down on the side of the road. Enough said. Game over.

He's saying you don't make any sense.

He's right.

Kid, please stop. On behalf of the SIHONA club (Semi-Intelligent Humans of North America) and the SIHOEE club (Semi-Intelligent Humans of Everywhere Else)

Don't continue. You'll end up digging yourself in a very messy unintelligent hole.

your "Code-Checker-Thingey" device that looks "like a game boy"
is in all actuality, a paperclip, or small piece of wire. You are telling us that you're too lazy to walk out to your car, pop your hood, bend a paperclip to two little terminals, and write down a flashing light.

Asking us to help you in this situation is like... analogy... analogy... hmmm...

I know! Like you're hungry and you want cereal. You pour yourself a bowl of cereal, but you're too lazy to open the fridge to check and see if there is milk. "MOOOOM! Do we have MIIILK?" You yell to your mother while she's in the shower. "MOOOOOOMMMM!"

And all this time, you're standing next to the fridge. But you don't want to open the fridge. You want to bother mom, who is enjoying her Pantene Pro V, Smooth and Sleek (Liso y Sedoso) (It's the one I use) Shampoo and Conditioner, and have her tell you if, indeed, you have milk in the fridge or not. And if it's spoiled, even though there's a date stamped on the container.


So kid, please, if you enjoy help, do not abuse help. And don't be so freakin' offended when help abuses you.

And that "checker" thing, which is indeed a paper clip or small piece of wire, tells you why your engine isn't running at a "Mechanical Homeostasis" so to speak.

Checking your codes is elementary. Very, so very elementary.

The fridge holds the answer. Open the fridge and stop bothering mom!

Well, unless for some odd reason you've been only exposed to carburated cars since you were in diapers, you know know of the electrical system found in fuel-injected cars. If you dont know OF that, than yo don't know plenty

Secondly, if you knew so much about cars, you know what a code reader is. This isn't a complex name, i just reads codes, and is a required tool for troubleshooting engine problems on any vehicle 1996 and newer. Where not asking you if you knew the codes by heart, that's impossible, but to even desbribe it using the words as "thingy" and "looks like an old game boy" really, really doesn't help your argument.

I'm sorry we're picking on your kid, but you're coming on here, acting the way you are and getting upset because we're not helping you, yet we are, and also getting upset because you're telling us that at 17 your knowledgable about cars, yet we're calling your BS, well, what do you expect?

Homeostasis= harmony for those who don't know. By the way how safe is it to drive when you have three rotors instead of four. lol. It will only be for a week.

I think only the quietest engines have perfect harmony ;) Kinda like if you gouge all of your cylinder walls, or forget to put your valves back in.

True true but maybe if you purchased a check engine thingy that looked like a old game boy it might help.
