Nooooo, So much judging from one damn picture!

Its for my friend, She makes me keep them with me, just in case she needs one, she's "quitting".

None the less... I'm going to remove a spark plug, check quality and also possibly check the carb today to try and resolve my dieseling issues.

I'd tell my friends to go kick rocks if they wanted to store cigs in my car. Not to mention even thinking about smoking them in my car.

There is no try. She has either quit or is still smoking. If your friend wants to quit, you need to throw that box out the window. It's not helping her at all. I don't really understand the need to have cigarettes in easy access if you want to quit.

Anyway, thread's not about smoking and how lame and gross it is.

Neat car.

I shant smoke at your house.

Today

Well, I had to drive home from my friends appartment around 6 this morning. And obviously, it was cold. So I decided to turn the heater on, Bad idea... Activating the climate control in this car(even if it is set for 85) will lock up the AC compressor clutch. And me, not retensioning the AC comp belt ended in disaster. As I drove down the freeway, I smelt burning... The Same burning smell that occured when this happened

So well I pop the hood to go and finally retension the belts(forgetting about the drive) and I saw the AC compressor belt turned inside out!(the bottom of the V tilted up!) And instead of risking putting a partly stripepd belt back in, I went and got another for $13(I love how cheap EVERYthing for this car is) and installed it! Along with retensioning the other accessory belts!
