The easiest car I've worked on was the GF's old Neon. When the water pump failed unexpectedly while driving on the interstate, causing the engine to loose time, I opened the head and repaired ("straightened") the valves with a prybar and hammer. The parts store even allowed an exhange of the failed waterpump for another (the pump was a few months old at the time). $0 out of pocket
Car drove "OK" afterwards, not quite as peppy, and burned a qt of oil every 1500 miles, which was about 2x its previous rate of consumption. But it ran and got through emissions just fine. :gay:
