 Car Broke Down **Updated 4/26**
So I was driving down the street, and then my engine just cut off, all the accessories n stuff still worked, like my power windows n what not, but power steering went bye bye and so did the motor.
any1 got some ideas?
1 person said get a master rebuild kit n rebuild my motor
and another said fuel pump
suggestions?

damn im sorry to hear that. but here are some ideas - try to find another 420A Engine and drop it in, part it out to get some more money for another car. Is the engine a complete loss?

Pull one at the junkyard I see 2G N/As left and right when I go. If your willing to get a little dirty it can be done with a tight budget. Just make sure to read up on everything TWICE good luck

well as far as i know, the everything but the bottom end and a couple pieces here n there, are still useable. the top end just got remachined too, so that should be ok. ima have it checked just to be certain.
ya I think ill end up swapping the 420a for another 420a
then i might just try n sell the car so i can use the cash for a car of similar value
just want to make it possible to start over with something else
i was screwed from the get go with this thing
ya im definately not overlooking a single thing when i get my next car.
i feel so stupid
