Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Injector port.
$300 part. Not bad for that car, actually.

The van, however, needed about $2000 of work. First the intake manifold gaskets, a few circuit boards, a vacuum hose and other things. Then as I was driving the van away from the dealership I heard nasssty clunkings and thumpings from underneath. Apparently the subframe assembly had rusted through on one corner (this is the part that holds the engine and trans onto the rest of the freaking car). Another $800.

Add in the rental car expenses and it's been, well, expensive.

New Holy Crap
and pass the enchilada sauce!

God love ya, boy! You might recoup a few of those clams by recounting your mishaps for a magazine or something. Making a beverage out of all those citrus-y things. ;-)

Smile,
Amy
New Well, the decision was fix or replace.
Cheaper to fix at this point. A new van would be quite a bit more spendy.
