What have you done to your Festiva today!?

[walth]

AAAAAAAAHH!!! soo frustrating! this morning I had to crawl through the hatch to get in, then drove to work locked inside, and got the lock to release when I got to work. Tonight I sprayed everything lock-wise down with white lithium grease and worked everything and put some in the window.

then moved to working on the license plate light (right side) that was out. screws were shot. grinded them down enough to melt the plastic below and pull out. lol. then got it working and reinstalled with new screws and then replaced the left sides screws and then that light went out. worked on the clips that complete the circuit and it still won't work. I'm pretty peeved.

There was a supposedly stock BP escort wagon here locally a few years ago. Wanted it but timing wasn't right.

This morning I started hooking back up vac lines and coolant hoses and such on Festevil.

Sold my 92 gl auto. 1550 bucks. I paid 350 for it. Still didn't want to sell it.

Wow! Maybe I should sell my 93GL then lol. I'd hate to do it but I could get wifey a nice escort wagon and BP swap it for that kinda money.

Where'd you get the mount?

Rockauto, like you suggested

$20 to my door.

bad batch?! I'd rather spend 100 bucks and it last 10-20 years vs 20 bucks every two months

that's cheaper than cheap. probably wouldn't tell them you did a pressure test on it!

It was a civic radiator shipped for less than $20. It lasted almost 2 months. I'm hoping it was just a bad batch.

I got a new bp for euro.... woot woot

[neanderpaul]

Little do they know that the way they treat you on this exchange will affect many people here. If they treat you right and it's a good price I know I for one will be looking to them for a radiator in the future.

There located in NE, I called the number but they had already closed, the voicemail matched the store name atleast. I left a message. If I don't get a call by noon ill call back.

[walth]

good luck. I've heard some horrid stories of ebay "lifetime" deals on radiators. I wish you well. I just know I'll never buy one from ebay.

[gauge_half_inch]

I pressure tested my newish radiator, that was dripping a little coolant, tring to locate the leak. The entire bottom end tank popped loose and started pissing coolant everywhere. Have to wait till tomarrow to call thw company for the lifetime warranty. Just hope the ebay company is a legit company and take care of me.

[walth]

that's a really good deal! I don't think I've ever bought new struts...usually get hand-me-downs from the JY. but someday...I'll enjoy new struts. haha
