Default Towed...

Any time I see my Stealth hanging off the ass end of a tow truck is a sad moment...

I stopped for gas, this morning, on the way into work, at the Citco on Broadway in NLR. When I got back in and turned the key she was turning over but not firing up. I checked all my plugs and wires and battery connections and all seemed fine. Had it towed 100 yards diagonally across the street to a shop who called to let me know that it was a computer problem (preventing the injectors from injecting) that they couldn't deal with and that I'd need to take it to a Dodge dealership for service.

"But isn't it really a Mitsubishi?"

"Yeah, but Dodge would know this car better."

So I call Dodge on University who say they don't service anything older than a '96... And then I call Mitsubishi on University who tell me to tow 'er on down, no problem.

I hope that was the head service guy who Marshall said has been there forever...

Well, this is turning into a real saga...

Little Rock Mitsubishi's Tom called, Friday. The ECM is dead. He didn't have one in stock and would try to order one. This morning he called. He can't get one through the Mitsubishi network but they might have one at Crain Chrysler and he can't call them to find out, so I did. Yes, they have one = $1820.

I do a quick search online and find a place that rebuilds them for $195 with a 24 hour turnaround and 18 month warranty. Tom will do the labour for $270.

If anyone can suggest anything else, within the next 12 hours before I overnight the unit to Florida, I'd be most grateful.
