you arent pointing fingers but you certainly are doing a damn good job of making me look like a piece of :q:q:q:q and because you constantly hammer the living piss out of your car that it runs like dog :q:q:q:q because of me, maybe if you calm the :q:q:q:q down once in a while and dont treat your car like john force treats his funny car you wouldnt have as many problems. and whats funny about me overlooking things is because i had someone one on the phone constantly crying he needed his car back like yesterday, you didnt seem to understand a motor swap doesnt take 4 hours, yet you insisted i make it take 4 hours, you know what dude when you rush someone to get a job that big done in no time, things get over looked. and where do you get off blaming me for your gaskets being reused? did you supply me with new ones, and you were in such a :q:q:q:qing rush you wouldnt have had time to even get me the gaskets to change. i bent over backwards for you and took that whole job straight up my ass trying to be a good person and help someone who was in serious trouble and this is how you write off for the whole world to see what i did for you. you are the kind of people i regret lending a hand to for anything, because you are abusive to your car when things dont go right you turn and point fingers at everyone but yourself. just remember who got you in this whole situation and how it happend and you want to make it clear to everone that i forgot to tighten the bolt in your idler pulley, lmfao dont worry derek i will never lay another hand on your car that way when it blows up or you smash it into a tree you cant blame me for it. this was one of the biggest mistakes i have made in my life bar none. and as far as what you said above as you consider me a friend, you got a real :q:q:q:qty way of showing that you consider me a friend bashing the hell out of me for all your problems, do me a favor and dont consider me a friend anymore it will be best for both of us, i wont contaminate your thread anymore, good luck.
WTF?! Jamie everytime I post something you jump in and make me look like :q:q:q:q. So when I finally step in and defend myself you say I'm the a$$hole? I don't get it? Maybe you consider friends only people that are submissive and let you dominate them, but that isn't me. I'm sorry but if your man enough to dish :q:q:q:q out, then be man enough to take it back. I've let you walk on me time and time again in here and kick me in the nuts, meanwhile I keep a lot of different :q:q:q:q to myself even though I want so badly to fire back for you stepping on my toes.
Case in point I was getting rid of my hood struts, someone was interested, you came in and said how they suck. I was like WTF! What you didn't know was they were defective and I had them fixed, and new pieces sent so the issue was no longer there. Because of your comment I was left sol. You've done that to me so many times in here I can't even count. Yet you ask me not to say certain things and even now I will keep them to myself because I AM A MAN OF MY WORD and I won't say something you've asked me not to say. See, that's how a REAL friend acts!
Yes I was on you about my engine...that was after you told me the other place had a good engine and it ended up not being good. That was after you looked it over and said it was good and it ended up not being good. That was after I had to pay you not only to put the first motor in, but to then put the next motor in since the first motor you told me to buy didn't work out. I banked on your advice because you were the expert on Marks. So of course when I was paying twice to have the same thing done I was starting to get a little jumpy. This also was after multiple times you would say you can't work on it during the week because of work, and then when the weekend came you would say you need to spend time with your family or you had a headache. Ok, that's acceptable to a degree, but when that excuse kept coming up of course I was up your ass! Any normal person would have been.
Jamie try looking back at the old threads about my build and look at all of the scapegoating you did. This is what you do, you offer to do something for someone, then you make them look like and feel like :q:q:q:q the whole time. That defeats the purpose of the action. I got tired of that, and when you came in this thread with your emotional fit I finally decided to stand my ground!
That's pretty ignorant of you to start a battle with me in a thread where I was simply trying to help myself. If you were a true friend you would have offered advice or whatever to help me locate the problem rather than pump me full of ultimatums, and then cry victim after.
See this is why I've layed low lately...sure many on here are great, but I got so sick of the drama. It was like every thread no matter how technical I would try to make it would somehow turn into a complete bitch fest. This is pure insanity!!!
I am having the same problem. eratic idle, runs hot, sound like a vacuum leak. my mechanic seems to think I have a cracked head but he also told me that compression is good in all cylinders. I told him I think the EGR needs to be replaced. what should I tell him to check or how to check if it is this dprf thing?
:q:q:q:q, have fun man! I just threw THOUSANDS at this car in a matter of months and to no avail the car still doesn't drive right! My best advice to you (and I'm being serious, I'm not being sarcastic) is to spend countless hours doing research on here, and on all of the other Lincoln sites. The best bet is to start from the oldest threads first. You'll notice the older the threads are, the less drama was contained within them. They are more packed full of useful, knowledgeable information. When you've done enough research you should start to understand your problems better. It's not a guarantee, but it's your best course of action.
Once you get enough knowledge you then can post up and have a bunch of info to add and to say doesn't apply to your situation. this should help others in giving you more appropriate information. Without the proper backstory you'll just get a bunch of guesses (since without the right info that's the best they can give).
Lol
