For several reasons in all honesty...

I cannot afford to do it nor do I have the skill nor any connections with reputable people.

Besides, if I were to do that, I'd rather just sell it and buy a manual. However, I paid $4,000 for a new engine a few years ago. It only has 35,000 miles on it as of today, so I'd like to hang on to it as long as I can until I can afford a second car.
