Title: KNOCK KNOCK.. Why me.... Post by: Rob on August 02, 2004, 09:12:41 am okay, I must have a curse or something ??? ... cause this is the second fiero that within a few days of having it on the road I get to deal with a blown engine.. this cars only got 131k on it! Im so incredibley depressed right now.. Ive got no money for a new engine, it is supposed to be safetied tomorrow.. anyone know if since its still driveable and doesnt knock under 2k rpm will they still saftey it for me so I can get ownership switched around?
