91 7.3 IDI NON TURBO BLOWN HEAD GASKET. ONLY 70K MILES
I think we can all agree that we hate engineers haha. Yea like I said I over reacted just a bit my bad. I've been criticized my whole life for my career path even though I make a lot more than half of the people talking. I've been called "just a dumb uneducated mechanic" so it gets a bit...- 74montercarlo
