May. 1st, 2009 08:54 amI noticed the Neon give me a low oil light when turning into the parking lot at work earlier this week. I stopped at the first gas station on the way home and got oil for it and added a quart. The next day I added another quart 'cause it was still low. It's been hard to see if there's a leak or not since it's been raining so much. This weekend I need to figure out where it went though. May have to replace the oil pan. I know it's leaking at the camshaft sensor too, but I didn't think it was much.
It also has very occasional hesitation and missing again, especially when accelerating hard. It's throwing code P0133, slow response from O2 sensor circuit. C'mon Igor; hold together for me? I may replace the sensor this weekend and see if that helps at all.
In the meantime,
moiracoon is driving Igor to work today since her KIA needs work. I was in it yesterday with her and the wheel bearing is sounding like the probe from Star Trek IV. Wub wub wub wub. Not so good. I'm thinking I'll have to have our mechanic look at it next week, 'cause I looked at the service manual at www.kiatechinfo.com and it looks complex. I will not work on any system on my mate's car that has the potential for catastrophic failure unless I really know what I'm doing.
My Aveo will be paid off next month. Finally. We'll be able to start putting that monthly payment toward future car stuff.
This weekend, with the exception of a trip to a book sale with
posicat on Saturday morning, is cleaning weekend. I'm so glad it's Friday today. Wanna go home now. Still have eight hours.
Oh; and happy May Day to all the workers of the world from our unenlightened country that doesn't celebrate it!
