Default I love

Getting parts that don't work when I get them. Found out Sat that my BRAND NEW starter is shot. I was going to start her up but now I have to wait to get a new starter . Thats the 3rd bad part I've gotten so far. Sorry, just had to rant a little.

I know how it feels. It kills your spirit to be so close and always be pushed farther back

Shit man, sorry to hear about those parts, I know if it were me then when the starter came in I'd be nervous as hell.

I HATE HATE HATE getting parts that don't work.

I once worked on a truck at work, went through THREE master cylinders before I found one that wasn't leaking from the rear seal. God I was so pissed off. Daily thing for me to have to deal with non working parts, or wrong parts...

I know your pain man.
