Ok, I am new here i know, I have got to know something LOL My car just recently had been broke down, it died one night at the hospital for one of my frequent asthma attacks. Parked it and when I went to leave, nothing, not even a click. It sat for 3 weeks. Well, FINALLY after that I found a mechanic who actually cared enough about his business to actually come tow the car (I have had several I had called they'd say they would be here and give me their quotes and never show) They obviously do not need money then LOL Anyway, he came got the car, told me it was the starter, ordered that, oh and by the way the throtle something or other also needed cleaning cuz it is gummed up, ok do it...we have it ready Monday, he told me that on Friday, talked today, oh your cadilitic (excuse the spelling if it is wrong) converter is plugged up, need a new one, or I can do this....explained what he could do...told him to do it LOL...well I go get it, as planned, and the darn thing runs like a bumble bee!!! Puttering at stops signs, dying on me etc. well he did tell me it is need of a tune up REAl bad! I have had cars in need of a tune up before, non have done this just cuz of that! With the problem I had before we thaught it might need the fuel injection cleaned out...wondering if it might still need it...LOL But anyway, my ??? is this...he did not hesitate to tell me all the rest, I told him to do it, except that the last time I told him to, he knew I would probably only have the money for that last thing, probably why he did not tell me about the tune up til I came and got it LOL But still, can a tune up make a car act like that? HHMMM inquiring minds NEED to know LOL Did I have a good mechanic or a bad one? LOL If my job wasnt about an hour away I would say F*** it and WALK!!! LOL But I cannot do that and getting rides to and fro have been hell. Anyway, sorry for such a long post..LOL and sorry for B****ing about it LOL just wondered if anyone knew about this stuff LOL Have a great day/night!!
