*Glenn* 854 Report post Posted April 7, 2009 Give them a call and tell them you're my uncle or something. I just cant see hows its gone from contamination in the fuel system to an electrical problem. Unless someone has had a real good tamper with your car. I'm not doubting the repairer ...they have a good reputation. Or maybe you've misinterpreted what they have told you ?
