    Well i took the Maverick out today.It felt so good driving her again. But i was comming down my road (about 2 blocks from home).And all of a sudden the heater core busted. It busted inside of the car.I spit antifreeze allover the inside.And down my right leg and filled my shoe up with hot antifreeze. What a shock that was :mad:

    How did it get on your leg? Isn't the heater core mounted on passenger side? Did it spew over the tranny hump?

    Ahhh. That explains it. Otherwise, it would have just flooded the passenger floorboard.

    200 degree oily water isn't too pleasant on skin. Will you recover?
