Pontiac Problems, But I Still Love Them

Well I finally fixed one of the latest issues with the Bonneville, I replaced the fuel pressure regulator. It was a heck of a lot simpler than I thought it would be. It would have been even simpler if I hadn't broken the rubber hose that connects the vacuum line to the FPR. So I went back to Autozone and the dude gave me what I needed for free, since it was a 1" lil bit of hose. Now it starts without having to give it gas and it does not die when you take you foot off the gas.

Now I need to replace the oil pump, preferable before winter, and the shocks and struts. The big thing that needs to be taken care of eventually is the transmission, it is slowly going out.

Now on to my car's woes, The engine is pretty much done for :( The head gasket went out and it sat for a lil bit and the engine seized up. I took out the plugs and tried cranking it over to see if it wasnt vapor locked but nothing budged. That means I need to get a new engine in it. This engine only has 107,000 some miles on it. Its just a pup, its sad.

Oh well Ive atleast almost got the bonne done thats good

Well now I am off to be yall. Good Night
