Or, I bought another engine today, I might say... this one is in a Ford Escort, a 1.9 liter motor for Kye & Sara's currently busted second car. I found it at only the second place I stopped, at a price, $425 + tax, that I was willing to pay and from one of the friendlier wrecking yard operators in our town. If the weather's tolerable tomorrow, I'm going out to pull it and drag it home.
Then next weekend I'll drag Kye's Escort up to the house and work to get the bad motor swapped with the good one.
I have an ulterior motive for my efforts... If I can get their 2nd car running for them, not only will it increase Kye's mobility during the day while Sara's working, but he'll be able to visit and bring my grandbaby to visit more often!
But you already figured that out I suppose.
