Actually, that's a lie. It was supposed to be 14.66. I started the car in 3rd gear because my buddy told me to. Our buddies are mean and stupid, aren't they?

If you are the kind of person that would pour engine oil in every cap then you wouldn't know how to bleed your brakes. Therefore you wouldn't be able to fill your brake resavior with oil, least you could do is barely top it off with engine oil which would not make your brakes "feel funny".

And I like how half your posts have a bunch of words mispelled on purpose, and in the other half you magically spell everything perfect because your quickly replying and not going through and spelling words wrong on purpose.

Oh, by the way, I'm sure your post in response to this will have a ton of mispelling now that I mentioned this.

i was using my phone for half the post and if you know whats thats like then I am sure you would not say that. and i never bleeded the breaks i just got the car 2 weeks ago and got a k an n filter it had flow master exhaust on it already but i just lowered it and got rims on it yesterday and my uncle took some pics of it for me (He is a photographer). and i was freaking out as well so sorry not the best typer when that is happening but 150.00 im out of and i learned a big lesson

I think the car should belong to your mom, maybe she should be on this site instead of you. sounds like she knows what to do. I knew what fluids go where when I was about 8?

I don't think so either.

Do you even know what brand of wheels those are OP? You can just send them to me, I'll take care of them for you, since I'm not too sure you know how...
