stretched so thin… it’ll take another month or two for my finances to normalize. i haven’t even considered savings for my accompany-my-sis-to-Australia trip. credit card bill for the past two months have spiked due to the timing belt incident and ‘promotion-related expenses’.
at least my net pay finally crossed the 2k boundary.
still, the end of my woes is nowhere near. the honda is acting up once again, this time unable to keep a decent idle rev. it’d be either too high upon ignition, or too low a few minutes after.. low enough to stall. that car will have to go soon, but it’s not for me to decide whether to sell cuz it’s not my car.
speaking of cars, my trust in Utama Tyre & Battery Service has dwindled. i went back to get this rev problem looked at, and they assign me this noob to look at the car. he didn’t even check the symptoms before recommending a spark plug/cable change. and lo and behold.. problem still there! then he unloads a huge amount of wd40 like stuff into the carb and making my car propel tons of white smoke from the rear. the yelling from his colleagues didn’t even faze him.
time to change places. the original foreman of this workshop was good and trustworthy, but he left to start his own stint in sunway. a little too far for me though. 🙁
so, any recommendations besides ah keong? 😛
