flatcat19 Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 Damn shit head kid. Im helping a buddies nephew get his 521 road worthy, but the damn kid doesnt want to learn a damn thing. He 18 or 19 and is going to the local community college be a mechanic (hes gonna work for bmw when he finishes) but wont touch his own truck. I told him to buy a matchbox but he refuses to go to the junk yard to find the pedestal so he paid $50 for one off ebay that he doesnt even know if its the right one. I told him his accelerator pump is leaking a little to buy a rebuild kit, he gets a new one off ebay like I told him not to but he got lucky and it isnt a chinese one. Still doesnt want to put the carb on him self. Im going to have my girlfriend do it amd im going to take pictures of her doing it and send it to the locos in our group text, they nor she will let him live it down and she likes to talk shit with the guys. Im just a little ticked off right now because yesterday when he brought me the new carb and dizzy(which the damn kid didnt even bring me a cap n rotor like I told him to) he said i can keep the old carb which still works perfectly fine then a few minutes ago he sends me a text saying he needs it back because his friend needs it. Which is the reason for this rant.Stop. He can learn on his own. Then when he gives up you get to buy a non-running 521 on the cheap. Bonus: You already will know what all is wrong with it. Bimmer ain't going to be any easier for him. 6 months working flat rate and he'll be delivering pizzas. Punk fucking kids. Tech students are the worst. 1 Quote Link to comment

Which is the reason for this rant. News flash, it's obvious to me that he doesn't want to put in the time to get it going. This is from 19 years of being brought up having everything handed to him. Don't perpetuate this by having your g/f do it for him because you want it going way more than he does. You can't teach by example and at some point you just have to walk away. 2 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 Exactly. How is he gonna be able to make a check when he ends up in a shop? Dude will get eaten alive in a flat rate system. 3 Quote Link to comment
EastBay521 Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 Lol the pedestal he ordered came in and is the wrong one. Im still undecided if I wana swap the carb or not just so I can keep the old one. And im going to run a fuel line into the cab with a gas can so I can drop it off at his place since he doesnt know how to drive a stick 2 Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 Now I'm convinced that it's only you that want's it running. 1 Quote Link to comment
EastBay521 Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 Lol. Your cool story just keeps getting better and better. Well then maybe you will like the part where he replaces his own fuel pump and doesnt take off the old gasket plus puts a new one.. Now I'm convinced that it's only you that want's it running. Pretty much They paid $4200....My first truck was a $700 shit box That barely stayed running and was only $700 because the dude delivered it to my place I was in love. Brought back some good memories i havent seen these pictures in a few years 2 Quote Link to comment
hobospyder Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 So, he has that nice of a truck but doesn't want to put in the effort to learn how to keep it running and can't even be grateful towards the one doing the work for him? Shit, ditch it ato his place and walk away 2 Quote Link to comment

bananahamuck Posted December 17, 2016 Report Share Posted December 17, 2016 There used to be a set of those wheels like you have in the front laying in my back yard ,,, man those things weighed a ton. 2 Quote Link to comment
DaBlist Posted December 18, 2016 Report Share Posted December 18, 2016 There used to be a set of those wheels like you have in the front laying in my back yard ,,, man those things weighed a ton. It's just a given that every out dated wheel ends up in your yard 2 Quote Link to comment
EastBay521 Posted December 18, 2016 Report Share Posted December 18, 2016 That pic was actually a few months after I got her when I first did the disks brakes in the front. Steelies wouldn't fit so I grabbed those from a friends yard 2 Quote Link to comment
