about $1000 down a hole
Thanks brother, I can relate to the lost money also.. big time.
I did give up once also, but it was a different circumstance. I had a crown vic that would just stall for no reason. Might not start for hours and when the tow truck would be there stretching out the winch... it would start.
Drove me nuts then 2 days before Christmas I was visiting some ex relatives in northern Michigan. Anyone who has seen it on a map will guess the weather. It died, I had to borrow a car to get home. Died in a bad spot too.
I gave up and had it towed to a shop I knew was expensive but I had more money than time at that point in my life.
They found a pinched wire somewhere under the front fender on the way to the fuel pump and fixed it. Hats off to them on the diagnosis but it is the only time I have ever had someone else work on a problem I could not find.
If no rain tonight I'll replace the plug on the jalapeno and move on to the stack of mods that has been waiting in my garage for most of a year now.
