What is that “thing” on his head?

Also return of the high pitched wailing.

 

[PsychoNerd054]

I’m not much of a mechanic, but the thing he just did with the coolant doesn’t seem like a good idea.

 

[GS 281]

Look at those dark circles.

Yeah, he is pretty fucked. A car doesn't do that unless there is a serious problem.

He thinks he's Wonder Woman. I hope that means he can't go to Brony Con.

It's a Sailor Moon headband with the gem missing.

Well looks like he has a choice. No buying swag at autisticon or no going to autisticon at all.

Tho of course someone will sail in & make this problem disappear for him..

 

[Mason Verger]

Goddamn, those aren't even bags, it's like his cheeks are sliding off his face.

I've only ever seen that in rapidly declining cancer patients.

Has he actually like... taken it to a mechanic? Many will at least look at it without charging.

 

[Deez Nuts]

Did he get a warning on the dashboard about the cooling system and just dump coolant in there? It's not like oil where you can get away with doing that for a bit if you run dry. He could take it to somewhere to get the error codes read to get a decent idea of what a repair might run him. Kinda what he shoulda done before doing what he did to "fix" it but oh well.

Car maintenance: another aspect of American adult life that has passed Chris by with the speed of a supersonic jet.

 

[Bassomatic]

Those and most cars have a very loose "dummy" gauge for the temp, the water temp on cars shifts around a lot, and this worries and annoys most drivers.

While it looks and does its job it has a big sweep you'd think it will show you details it really doesn't, it's got cold, happy middle (where it sits in the operating temp range) and too hot to oh shit.

It's clearly in the too hot. The only thing really the duratec 2L his car has is famous for is intake manis cracking on the early models.

If Chris had friends I'd say get it off the road ASAP esp being an alum motor and ask them, but he will put it around, till it stops running and the repair bill will be large.

Edit: wow he knew about running the heater trick. I'm impressed.

 

[The Captain]

Chris is texting everyone he knows asking for $$$.

 

[Mason Verger]

Ill admit I'm impressed he knew the heat dump trick.

If he does try for bronycon, in the high heat of summer, he will definitely kill his engine.

 

[Mariposa Electrique]

The male idiot probably hasn't changed the "ore" since he purchased that heap.
Oh well, idiots, help by Chris another trannymobile, so he can be innapropriate around other humans per usual.

There's a lot of reasons it's heating up. I assume he has the AC blasting and no oil changes ever . He should run the heat with Windows wide open and take some off and check the thermostat those models always lose thermostats .

Ford: Fix or Repair Daily, especially when basic maintenance is never performed and the car is already a high mileage POS

Chris mentions leaking, that's the hoses, or fittings, possibly the rad itself, a dead even lack of thermostat will not cause leakage loss like he's speaking of.

That motor is a Mazda engine really.

Edit: I just checked Chris is lucky it takes basic coolant so what ever he poured in it won't eat the hoses worse... I had horror flashbacks of dex cool.
