Sooner or later almost every driver sees a yellow "Check Engine"
light. This means that the engine needs repair. This is generally a
minor problem such as a defective emissions control, cracked vacuum
hose, or a bad spark plug.
It's a little known fact is that when the engine needs to be replaced,
the "E" in the word "CHECK" changes to a "U". Thus it says "CHUCK
ENGINE".
If you ever see the words "CHUCK ENGINE", you need a new engine
immediately. DO NOT continue driving. Your engine is trash.
Take this message seriously. This is not merely a malfunction of the
spell checker in your cars computer, this is SERIOUS. By the time
this alert occurs, you are likely missing some pistons, your valves
fell into the crankcase, there is a huge hole in your block, your
crankshaft is stuck inside your transmission, your main bearings fell
out, your engine head came off, or your carburetor got sucked into
your exhaust manifold. These are all serious problems, and just a few
of the many terrible things that can happen to an engine.
I know this for fact. Just last week I was driving down the road in
my Ford when I saw the dreaded words, in flashing red, "CHUCK ENGINE".
I stopped the car and called the wrecker. My mechanic later told me
that my water pump had sucked my alternator into the radiator, pushed
it thru the 5th cylinder, and it was found embedded inside my muffler.
I was given the choice to replace the engine, at the cost of almost
$50,000, or to buy a new car. I am trying to get a second mortgage to
raise the money for the repair, because I can not afford a new car.
CHUCK ENGINE is a SERIOUS matter!!!!
When you see these dreaded words, STOP DRIVING and seek help.
