    Thank you. I'm actually quite terrified about how we are going to get by for the next few years. Gonna have to switch to cheap beer and whiskey and just quit eating all together

    Yeah a little tougher being a 28yr old college student with a lot more bills than the standard 18yr old one. Plus the gf might move out and leave me if that's all I feed her.

    But enough of my sob story. Y'all can get back to the regularly scheduled go fast programming

    Don't be blind brother. The girlfriend is obviously not there to support you for the struggle therefore not really there for your best interests for the long haul.

    Just saying man.

    Nah she's there for the long haul and has already offered to find a second job if we need to. And I'll definitely have to find something minimal part time for us to get by for the time being.

    Edit: just hope she'll be ok with a ring pop or something if I decide to upgrade her status before I'm done with school

    Something worth looking in to, see if the university has anything full time that you qualify for. My uni gave employees free tuition, you just were limited on your work load (which is fine cause you're working anyway). Saved myself a ton of money.

    My chick would be lucky if she gets a damn ring out of a cracker back box.

    Looked and they require a bachelors or higher for everything that's open right now. But thanks for the advice. Yeah they pay 90% if you are a full time employee taking classes. I am going to be on the look out for anything that opens up there that I may qualify for

    Yeah my position was written so that it required a BS or equivalent experience. I was part time for a while before going full time, so I had the 'experience'.


    It's funny how the requirements work. I was friends with the girl who ran our machine shop, she went to a trade school but was getting an engineering degree (because why not it's free). As the head of the machine shop she was the professor for our machine design lab, a 300 level class. But for her engineering degree she had to take engineering 101, always made me laugh.

    anyone want a walbro 255 fuel pump? I though it was busted but it looks like my fuel line was destroyed by hoseclamps, thus causing my sporadic issues

    If I hadn't bought a deatschwerks 320 E85 pump literally yesterday I'd take it.

    How bad was getting the pump to play with the OE pump assembly? Are you running a remote fuel filter?

    Im literally sitting in my drive way waiting for a new pump stainer to get here.

    It honestly seems easy. Like so easy.

    This was the only hard part

    Adding a remote fuel filter is a pointless mod in my opinion and by doing so you only add more leak points to the system.
