So I'm leaking coolant... From what appears to be my waterpump (the weephole?).
I'm waiting on a new waterpump from Summit, but I was wondering if it's okay to be driving to college (100 mile round trip) because I start on the thirty first.
And my rear tires are bald, and my hazard lights switch doesn't work, and my exhaust system makes a loud vibrating sound at stoplights, and my radio doesn't work (still oem tape player
), and I got a scratch on the front bumper that I don't know where it came from.
Dammit!

I'm also still making this sqeaky sound, kinda like a kazoo sound from the engine bay. I posted it before but the problem hasn't gone away. One guy told me it was cuz I was running lean so I thought maybe I had dirty injectors so I tried injector cleaner. The problem became less frequent but still comes and goes.

I went through 3 opti sparks before I realized my fairly new water pump was leaking on it. 
Now I think it's doing much better!
Driving from Dallas to school (~200 miles) it started dying just driving down the highway. I would let it sit for a few minutes then would start back up and drive for an hour or so. Be careful man, you don't want to get left stranded somewhere!
