    Well...the curse that some 9000 year old witch put on my car before I bought it or whatever seems to have kicked in again...

    My goddamn gas tank seems to have like...cracked in fucking half or something...

    It had two tiny puncture holes in it that were sealed up with small screws and rubber washers, they were accidently drilled in there when installing my amp (my g/fs dad misjudged the clearence...damnit..) so anyway, they were up near the very top and never caused any kind of a problem anyway...

    Well now, out of nowhere, today my goddamn fucking gas tank, which isn't even 1/4 full just all of sudden started spewing gas out like crazy. I can't figure it out...maybe the screws plus the bass always rattling the gasstank caused the metal to buckle and split?? I don't know...I hope I don't need a whole new fucking gas tank..that'll probably be expensive...

    Just another in the long line of wierd problems that seem to come out of nowhere with my car...including at one point being infested with black widow spiders...it never stops :rolleyes:

    Anyone know why this might have happened?? My dad's hydrolic jack is missing and so I can't really get a good look at it...plus i'll probably end up getting gas in my fucking mouth/eyes...Grrr....

    Its a 1991 Mercury Grand Marquies

    That wouldn't explain why it's leaking when the gas tank is nearly empty, the holes were up near the very top of the tank...plus they were very small...its like a goddamn waterfall now...i'm gonna have to take my dads truck to the gas station with a tank just to get my car started to take it someplace

    Maybe something kicked up and bashes a big hole it or something, that would be just my luck...

    Even a new gas tank is cheap in the aftermarket. I'm willing to bet you could get a new one professionaly installed for under $200.

    =D

    I hope it turns out okay...i kinda enjoy being able to DRIVE my car =P

    Looks like its time to get rid of my piece of fu.cking sh!t...as soon as i get moved into the new house its time to go job hunting and get my parents to co-sign me a lease on a newer used car...

    Maybe I can even sell my hunk a junk and put the money into an even better stereo than the one i have planned :D
