I have the day off!! (whoop!)



because!!



Every time I take my foot off the accelerator (gas pedal?) ... the engine just 'Stops'...

what the.. confused


It was fine yesterday.. but today.. noooope. (it's unleaded.. not diesel btw)


A few days ago I checked the oil and water.. and am slightly ashamed to say it was out of BOTH frustrated blushing lol

I refilled those.. but anyway..

I just spoke to my dad.. and he said.. 'fer gawwwds sake Claire.. sounds to me like it's terminal.. I bet it's because you didn't keep an eye on the oil and water, ya buggered!' ... shamrock blah blah blah

rolling eyes

Anyway...

I've dropped it to the garage (over the road)...

But any smart people know what it might be?.. Is my dad right.. rolling eyes

I don't know much about cars, but if you had no water and no oil my guess is you're pretty much screwed. I've driven enough pos cars to have experienced that.
