In the training they explained how to use the gauge, but we had a lady come in buy the big $40 can and I showed her the port and explained the way they told us, 10sec. at a time until its in the "V" mark. She came back in and said the needle started going up just fine then dropped back to zero and wouldn't move any higher. We told her to take it to a shop, I was wondering why it might have done that. None of us could giver her any possibles besides a big leak.

At work we sell r134a top off cans and components. They sent us to a training day but all that did was show us how to sell it. I want to know more on how to use these products so I can tell the customer more than reading a pamphlet. All we are allowed to do is show them where the low side port is but that's it, I figured being able to offer more advice would be good. Thanks!

want... http://www.wonderbart.com/images/08/may/turismo_civic.jpg

no i haven't done a leakdown test or compression test yet. Yeah I work at autozone, but i applied so I would learn things. All I knew how to do before working there is oil and disc brakes. still don't know half of what im selling, I make sure to ask others before selling something or telling people what to do first, but as I go along im learning more. edit: saw above post and yeah we pretty much will hire anyone with a basic knowledge of cars. the questions on the online application ask alot about drinking though...

First of all I'm stuck in a job making less than $9 an hour trying to pay bills and raise a 3yo and take care of the pregnant wife who has a full school schedule for a nursing degree, which is why im stuck at Autozone since no other place will work around her schedule. Second I appreciate the links to the better cars but all I have is the civic for straight trade I don't have money to save back. Also of all the threads Ive posted, yeah most were dumb, you choose the one that I'm asking a serious question in to give neg rep? Wtf? I started this thread because I was supposed to meet the guy with the accord today, I cancelled on him when the majority of the replies were no go's. I wasn't trading today just looking my plan was to look at both then decide but I figured I would get others opinions. And for those that answered my questions and stayed on topic thank you I really appreciate that. For the rest.. fuck you! This isn't the kitchen, most of the people here seem to be helpful but there's quite a few who seem to be middle aged assholes that have no kids or spouse that would take any extra money so they can afford things.

If there is oil what's that mean?

i have an engine from a 91. just have no idea what im doing

I think I'm gonna keep the civic and grow a pair and try to fix it. It will be a few months till britt gets student loans.

ok. thanks guys.

the civic started burning oil 3 days after i got it.. the guy put something in to stop it or something. but i went through a 5qt jug of 5w30 in less than a week. I use 10w40 now and it lasts longer. I would like to just keep the civic and do the work my self but i dont want to fuck shit up more than it is now.

it burns oil really bad and i dont know what im doing to swap or rebuild it. and we have another kid due in feb. so with the accord was looking for long term or the integra can be traded easier later down the road.

Im looking at trading the civic for one of two cars, a 90 accord 4 door 188k that the speedometer works sometimes and has a straight exhaust. It is auto too. Or a 94 integra that just needs some paint and has no radio, but mechanically is fine. 177k on it. Im going to look at the accord today in west jeff if anyone want s to come with ill buy lunch just to make sure i dont get another pos. Also lookinng at the integra on sat. My question is which is the lesser of two evils? I was looking at the accord because its 4 door and auto so if the nissan goes down again the wife can still drive, but the integra doesnt have any mechanical issues, posted anyway... any info is helpful integra=http://columbus.craigslist.org/cto/3155894583.html accord=http://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/553392_10100542008398112_524971419_n.jpg

At work got busy while I was typing. I just searched smilies.

If you have an android, maybe ipod, phone there is an app that you can send the meme face in text messages.

Thanks. Thats what I was hoping for. Fun but still cheap. I thought hondas were supposed to be cheap...

Ok the skyline thread was just a question about them being hard to title.. no way can I afford on making 8.70 an hour.

Just wanted to see what everyone thought of this idea. A guy came into work the other night and we got to talking about his "plain ol' neon". He has a 98, i think, body with a 2.4 engine and srt4 internals, and a 50 trim turbo. He was saying for $800 you can get the stock turbo and manifold and an engine from one of the 2.4l "cloud cars". I thought this would be a fun project that wouldnt cost too much to start off and I can build this or gather parts a little at a time. Would this be a decent build or is it still just a neon in the end? First step of the build is convincing the wife its a "good idea" lol.

Jones my civics slower... but if i get a head start you wont be able to see to win. lol

price drop 200..

Looking for Rc car/ truck. I have a paintball gun or the fish tanks for trade. Truck wise looking for something to take to horns hill not too picky just needs to run.
