I want to drive my car off a cliff.

Don't be a drama queen. We all have a few hours under the hood.

Trade it in on a new Honda Civic and leave it stock if wrenching isn't something you enjoy. Owning a 20 year old anything is going to mean some occasional work that the leased Honda/Nissan/Toyota guys never deal with, but they have vanilla-plain cars that don't get a 2nd look.

$100 paypal'd directly to you if you will do such and provide documentation of said car off of said cliff.

Good times are less meaningful without such periods of frustration. You'll appreciate the car and your abilities more once the situation and your "feelings" calm down. Good luck.

Note: I may go as a high as $150. :)

What if it was an E24? I have an E30 and E24 at the shop and there is a ~50 ft. "cliff" in front of the shop.

$150 is more than the E30 is worth. And the E24 is asking for it...

I don't mind wrenching when i get in there figure out the problem and fix it. Its the repetitive breakdown to try something and reassemble thats killing me. Id rather know what the problem is even if it is as extreme as bent valves just so i know what needs to be done. Its this wondering that is frustrating me, feel like Ive checked everything out mechanically and thats its out of my hands. Is there any way to diagnose by looking at dash lights or anything? And Im in a better state of mind now then when i posted up, had a ruff day at work and when i came home and did allot of work on the E30 that i thought would fix it and it didn't it made the day even worse.

If i didn't like wrenching i wouldn't have worked at a shop wrenching for the last 6 months.

There's your problem - you HAVE to wrench now, instead of just on your own time. Works for some people, but the saying also holds true that mechanics cars just barely run.

I like cheese, but I wouldn't go work in a cheese plant or a dairy farm.

I think you may be on to something, may be time for a career change this spring.

I'll chip in to see one of those roll off a cliff.
