I await Groomus's surgery and prognosis
weird..thats what happened to me...it came on as soon as i put a new battery in..mines been off the road for 3 years too....but i dont have a.c.

anyway.. its the least of my troubles for now..!!

first...inlet manifold off..for new injector lines..
then... new brakes.. in the literal sense of the word...including bomb
then......
everything else...!!
tailgate struts...
get the heater blower....well.....blowing..when i want it to..!
get the rad. fan......to go off..when i want it to..
re-align a door...which is currently acting as an air-brake..!
bulbs...left right and centre.....
then...
(trying to remember what the auto-check is telling me)
oil pressure switches..!! at least thats what the computer from beyond the grave is telling me..
temp sensors and thermostat..
then..
a little blow in the exhaust to 'mig up'..and a rattle in the back box..(not sure if its just hitting a heat shield or if the baffles are loose)..
strut top bearings.....
and gawd knows what ill find or break while im doing all this shit..!
i think ill stop now..!! starting to get depresed..!!
and
you wont believe me but ive already done two thirds of what the car needed when i got it..!!
but....it was free so thats what you get..!!!
