Good question, I had forgotten about that.

Couldn't get in till Wednesday.  On start up the "engine malfunction" message was gone and it ran smoothly.  A picture of the engine was still lit so I took it in anyway.  They checked the codes and said the same as before "2 leaking injectors".  Told them that I had used Textron twice and the light disappeared.  Tech said it was not a cleanliness problem rather a mechanical one.  So he cleared the codes and said he was willing to "kick the can down the road" and see what happens.  No charge.

Did you explain to the tech that like you’re old car, you too have a leaking injector? However I wouldn’t recommend Textron in your condition, may be a bit caustic. Possibly Sea Foam - ?

Fine with me too. LOL, I wonder what newbies that don't know us think?  

I don't know but it appears Richie don't want no part o dis.  Either that or he hasn't logged in lately and may be out shopping.  K-Mart might be having a sale on Depends.

so when I moved to this God forsaken state, I neglected to file my state income taxes because there was a weird circumstance. long story short, the following year I filed for both years and I got stuck with a large tax bill.  So, I opted for a payment plan instead of forking over a large sum of money all at once (yes, I know I pay more since they charge interest). But I get a certified letter today from the state saying that since I owe taxes still, they're telling the feds to send them my federal tax refund and any other federal money that is due to me ... okay, I get that; but wait there's more ... every time the feds give them my refund the state is going to charge me a fee.  really, you ask someone to give my refund to you and then you charge me for taking the money?

I just told my brother that I'm done with this state and at the soonest possible time, I'm gone.

Oh yeah, I’ll take some ah this. I shop upscale these days - Walmart. And when we really step out, Target.  Pity you fools still waiting for a “blue light special”. I haven’t seen a KMart ‘round these parts for years, maybe decades. I’ll disregard the cheap Depends shot as nothing more than what a Kmart shopper thinks is humorous.
