My car was not as wonderful as I'd hoped. I have to replace the intake manifold and the radiator, and the brake safety switch needs to be fixed. All of this is going to cost me around 900 dollars to fix and I absolutely do not have that kind of money. I'm freaking out. 
My friend said she had the mechanic look at it and he TOLD her that the manifold was cracked, but she didn't tell me because he told her it wasn't a big deal. I feel pretty stupid. I knew better than to buy a car from a friend but against my better judgement I did, and now I regret it. I love the car but I am having to pour money into it that I just don't have.
Just when things seem to be going well some shit always has to happen. I don't know how I'm going to afford this. My parents don't have the money to help me, and I don't really have anyone else to turn to. This sucks

dougrun:
the brake switch is probably a $20 part, just needs to be replaced but if you can shift into gear, its still working currently. its probably mounted just above your brake pedal lever, take a peek and look for it. see if it moves freely or is sticking.

Haha sounds great! Yeah it was a blast working there. 
i can't wait till next year.
