Okay this message is kinda dumb but this wierd phenomena is truly wacked out, or maybe just a few thousand to 1 coincidence. Okay I have a car that runs great and has no problems but often times when I park in this one particular area it will start all screwed up. Basically I will turn the car on and it will idle at like only 200 RPM. Then I turn it off to restart it, and it works perfect again. First time it happened I was like "oh shit, car trouble". Then it happened again like a week later- once again in the same parking spot. no problems any other time. Then it happened again 2 more times recently- once again only in this little parking area I frequent (this is where my band's studio is so I go there frequently but still only like 3 or 4 times a week). All I can say to myself is "WTF"!?!?!
Anyway my car always starts percfectly unless I park there- I dunno but this is really wierd, and if it's just a total coincidence, this is a hell of a longshot.
Now for another wierd possible coincidence that involves the same topic but has really gotten into the long run so I doubt even more that it is a coincidence is this- I had my last car for several years and naturally it started to show some age and eventually it would just randomly not start for me. Okay well this could easily be car trouble, anyway I take it to my mechanic and he finds everything to be fine. I say okay and it continues to quit on me periodically over the next couple weeks- I take it back to the guy and he puts in a new starter but says he's not sure that it really needed it. He still sees no problem as to why it would would occasionally quit on me. Anyway I drive it home and literally 20 minutes later I get in to get food or something and the damn thing won't start for the life of me. Anyway after yelling obscenities with reckless abandon for a minute or two I decide to get a new car. Now, one of my friends wants my car so i say, here you go, have it for free, it doesn't like to start all the time though, so don't take it to the ghetto. Anyway that was like 5 months ago, he never took it the mechanic and the thing has started EVERY goddamn time for him, and he uses it all the time. Go figure.
