Throwing myself upon your mercy
 
Alright damnit, this goes against anything I've ever done but im pretty ------ lit and figure why the hell not.

I will NEVER complain about the bad things that happen in life because they happen to us all. History shows that when it rains it pours.
I'll spare the details but between ex-wife owing me 7g's in back child support, really shitty economy, and being laid off my job as a paramedic has really put a ------- hamper on my HMT habit.

in additiointhis dumb ---- and his Pontiac i was swapping a motor mount out for decided to drop a jack without telling me he was going to do it, crushed my ------- hand between the engine and frame and freaked out to bad to jack it back up, instead after almost 2 min he brings me a prybar that i use to pry the engine up far enough to get my hand out of.(this all after he calls 911) sorta added to the whole hard to turn wrenches to hussle some cash up.
The problem is that it has all come when i'm 95% done with the car, and after almost a year of 4am impact wrenches pissing off my neighbors, i REFUSE and i mean FLAT OUT REFUSE to give it up untill it's done. I might have ate ramen noodles for the last 2 months but i will see this ------- project done till it's end. period.

I last received a MSD electronic knock sensor gauge, that supposedly is calibrated by holding the rpm's at 2500-300- grand range and turning the sensitivity knob up until you see the first green light. I had a brass and fitting shop custom cut me an adapter so this damn thing would even hook up but i kind of have doubts as to it's accuracy because what the sensor says and what the plugs read are two different things. anyone else got experience with these devices on a B series?

ok i'll get to my embarrassing yet pretty simple point.
Im to broke to dyno tune my car or to buy a wide band to street tune it myself.
the level of O0 O0 O0 i'm feeling from drivin on a basemap is enough to make me wanna ram pencils into my eyeballs.
I can pretty much fix anything, I'm not an -------, I get along with everyone and I can work 20 hours a day. if you happen to have problems scoring ass, i can probably help that too, i seem to have a knack for getting my buddies laid.
If there is anyone in the metro Atlanta or anywhere within a few hundred miles that knows their ----, I'm offering slave-like labor on your car or shop doing whatever the hell you want untill you feel we are even for a dyno or a decent street tune using your wide band.

94 civic b16 Sir2 swap, garrett T3 .63 a/r with all the bells and whistles, ecu already xenocron chipped with ostrich/moats and extra chips with cable already connected ready for the laptop that was stolen from me. (see intro post if you really wanna see all the ----)

I know i risk any good rep i may have earned while here at HMT if any at all by posting this bullshit but yeah...it's come down to that...i will live in my car and let the bank forclose on the house before i give it up so if anyone can help out with that, of course would be much appreciated.

/salute

Sounds like your having a ---- time, the hand crushing sounds partiulary harsh, keep your chin up though it always works out in the end :y

Damn dude. This shitty economy is being pretty hard on everyone but you especially. I hope you find someone but by the sounds of it you have kids to take care of so sell the car so they can have a roof over their heads besides a car roof.

Re: Throwing myself upon your mercy
 
Nah dude the kids are ALWAYS taken care of, they are #1 and just because i'm eating ramen, doesn't mean they are.

Realistically I'd of course sell the car if i had to but it's not going to come to that. still got a little cash coming in from uncle sam as his way of saying thanks for getting your humvee blown up in iraq lol.

Anyways it's morning now and im sober, and after re-reading what i posted i figure i should clarify that i don't want anything for free, I'm just hoping i can find somebody to "barter" with.
