Today I got really worried because I was having a lot of trouble with my car. My car is a 1997 Subaru Outback Sport. I bought it for very cheap just to be transportation for me for a little while plus I didn't want to have a car payment. Well today when I dropped my daughter off at daycare the car was smoking and I was able to make it the rest of the way to work with no problems. Well after work I headed to the nearest part store that was along my route and the temperature shoot up past the hottest mark on there and I thought for a while that the thing was going to explode.
Luckily I was able to make it home and after a few calls to my brother to make sure that my hunches were right about what was wrong and to get some extra pointers I tackled the job of replacing the thermostat. I really could have used some jack stands because it was hard to get my big dome under that small car. It made me miss my jeep once again...............................<-- Moment of Silence
Well after getting covered in coolant and getting quite a bit of it in my eyes I was able to finish the job and it was just the fix I needed. Thank God it was just a $20 part and not something more serious!
