Thats why I'm here to learn what I can

I am not buying a new car, I like the one I have now. I would like it even more if it worked.

My mechanic said that to get a new engine installed it would cost me five thousand. Like you said though is he being honest or not?? I dont know

That is why I want to know exactly wtf is wrong with my car and why it needs a new engine to fix it.

Now lets try again - what is a compression test?
