Ordered a new distributor, coil, and ign rotor. be here on friday. Also to gripe a moment about a local 1970's 911 owner and retired Porsche/BMW mechanic. I stopped into my local gas station and introduced myself and asked if he still worked on Porsches. He said he does occasionally. I then asked him about if he would be interested in helping me trouble shoot a oil leak in my 944. He instantly put his hands over his face and said," My best advice is to get rid of that piece of crap and get a 911. They are underpowered pieces of **** and would never own one." Needless to say, his comment kinda pissed me off and really caught me off guard. Never the less I talked to him for a few minutes more about his car, trying to bridge a age barrier gap bc clearly he considers a 32yr old man still a 12yr old kid. I left him to sit in the gas station to finish drinking his coffee and me having just wasted 20 minutes of my life to this old ahole and went on home .
Well today I got in and drove my car (after some clever engineering with the ign coil) to the gas station a few miles from my house for a pack of smokes and on the side of the road was a 1970's 911 with a old grey haired fart with his hands waving in the air trying to flag down some assistance. I clearly slowed down and stuck my middle finger right up against the windshield and kept on driving. I prob should have stopped but it just felt better to keep on driving after he pissed me off at the gas station by being rude and just brushing me off.

Some old fart isn't getting to have coffee with his friends today bc karma is !@#$%!
