Worst vehicle you have ever worked on? - Page 8 - Infamous Nissan

I have a couple. The new Fiat 500 because everything is crammed into the space of a D21 jump seat, and a Buick Lucerne. To replace ANY bulb on the front end, the :censored: front bumper has to come off. Poor design.

I had an 87 Subaru 4WD wagon some years ago. I hated working on that thing, but loved taking it up into the high country. It would do steep hills off road like you wouldn't believe.

And the second time it blew the timing belt...I junked it.

Any of yall have the pleasure of replacing injectors on a 7.3l diesel Ford E350?

Just say no.

No. And that work you did with the injectors would give me nightmares. The hardest repair I ever did was doing a full clutch job on an 89 single cab D21. I had to do it in the driveway, and it rained the whole time, plus the daily average temperature high was 35 degrees. OMG. I damn near died of pneumonia on that one.

But...I finally get it done after changing clothes twice a day...and then the engine starts going out. Oh, brother. Sold. $250.
