“Water is leaking from house along firewall. I barely can go anywhere and im at risk of losing my job. I'm having acceleration problemss. My car is not catching up and the speedometer went out. Keeps ticking and I got a full tune up. It smokes even when it's not running due to water spraying all over the engine. Everytine I stool I have to let the hood up so it can cool and I have to put water in it after every single delivery I make. Smokes really bad when I'm in park and stall out sometimes”
