When I got my car back it wasn't idleing smooth, so I called the guy that fixed it. He said that he didn't change the spark plugs. Well I thort that he would of coz I think that water n spark plugs don't mix well. So I changed em and yeah my car is running alot more smother now. All I need to get done now is the top part of the engien. coz of that annoying taping sound thats is been makeing for about a year...

But first I need to get my speedo checked. I was driveing to sydney follow my parents. They have a NC Fairlane Ghia. My dad put the cruz on at 110k's and my EA was showing a 120k's. So that to next thing to get fixed.

As soon as my brother get himself a car, I'll b able to get my car back off him and get those 2 problems fixed...

Oh and another question:
I was offered a fully worked head for $2000 fully installed. Is that a good price???

Yeah that sounds alright but you probably should have got a brand new head put on. Last year I got a brand new complete monotorque head with a (2yr/40000km) warranty, head bolts, timing chain, all gaskets replaced including sump, new oil filter and oil, coolant, thermostat and and i was only charged $350 Labour, $750 head and about $300 for all the other stuff I mentioned. Total was $1400.
