I failed. Won't get to see the dermatologist now, so my skin will continue being destroyed. Might as well just scratch my arm off; what's the point in trying to save it.

Only time I heard of this is if you just don't change the oil

It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha."

I thought that makes the car undrivable as in you'll be choking on black smoke and basically be forced to stop.

My father has a "ladyfriend" who owns a 85 Monte Carlo. 300k+ miles. It's also toast. He's been trying to get it back in working condition where it's not breaking down every week. I think he said he's given up. They decided to start looking for another car.

I only chuckle at this because when I was in high school (90-94) the go to car to get that was cheap, dependable, and would run practically forever was an 80's Monte Carlo.

Seriously back then you could pick one up for under $1,000. Great deals for high school kids. The parking lot was full of them at school.

Nah itll sputter out and die, but you will just need to drain the tank and purge the system.

Gas in a diesel vehicle can be a bigger issue.

Yeah diesel is compression ignition gas is spark ignition. Diesel needs high compression to even ignite.
