Title: Bloody cars (I blame ralphy) Post by: Asher on Wednesday, December 21, 2005, 11:04:38 Turned on engine this morning and it was all jumpy and load I thought oh its the cold. Drove 3/4 miles to the office and by the time I got here the engine light was on. Looked at the hand book and it said that light was a fuel emmision. I took it to exhaust place and they said that its not the exhaust but the engine!
