Old KIA needs some Loving

Good morning Blues World. Woke up this morning thinking about my old 2002 Kia. I love that little car. I bought it from a neighbor. It already had a bad valve in it. But it was so cute. I couldn't resist getting it. I drove it for three or four years with the bad valve. Now it needs a starter. It needs some TLC. I should get rid of it but at the same time I just enjoyed the little car. I nicknamed it Put Put because it made a put sound with that bad valve. 

  I'll just drive it around home or use it out here on the farm. It's one of the most fun cars I've ever driven and it's a four wheel drive KIA.   

  When I was young in high school, when I was going to the Tech Center, some of my friends were studying auto mechanics. My homeboys and I would work on cars together. We learned a lot. One thing I learned is that working on cars clears your mind, takes your mind off of things and focuses on something. Working on a car is also good physical activity. A lot of bending and Squatting exercises are always good to get. And of course it gives you the feeling of accomplishment if you're able to get it running. It can be challenging sometimes and that's always a good thing to challenge yourself. And of course you always learn something about working on cars  

  . And it's a great outdoor activity. I love being outdoors. I'm trying to convince myself to get started working on this KIA. Maybe I can drive it for a while.  Maybe video the job and put them onto YouTube, since that's a popular thing to do nowadays to share your knowledge and share your journey. I was just thinking about it and thought I'd write about it. Do any of you work on cars as a hobby or maybe as a profession ?
