Well, as some of you may know, I had my car in for the head swap to take care of the tick. I just got it back today after two freakin weaks of driving around a Taurus with "Ford of Ocala" written all over it. :burn:
Anyways, the tick is gone but I find myself extremely paranoid. I have not had that much time to drive it because I went straight from class to pick her up and then straight to work. I did look under the hood and it looked like absolute shit. They could have at least cleaned it up a little. I don't know much about engines so I will be taking it to my girlfriend's dad to let him look it over and see if anything looks out of place. I will be cleaning it up tomorrow hopefully if I have time.
About the paranoia, it just feels really weird driving it. Is this because I haven't driven it in so long?? Things like the steering feels weird and the clutch feels different, and I am afriad to take it to WOT for fear of not breaking in the new head, so I don't know if that is any different. And is it possible for the engine to sit lower than it is supposed to? For some reason it looks like it is. I am probably just really paranoid and need some consolation.
By the way, I am going to have my stepdad talk to the dealer tomorrow, they put 30 miles on it! :cuss: Isn't this kind of excessive, even for a head swap? Sorry for the long post, thanks in advance for your consoling.
