Hey guys, I'm pretty happy I got my car back today. He was right one of the fuel pumps has been out the whole time I had the car. This car is so fast, it has never took off and drove like this. It's like having a new car. Very good acceleration.

So it cost me $ 1,400 bucks.... new vacum pump I even hear it coming on and off after turning the car off, I never heard that the whole time I had the car either..... new ignition switch.... and 2 new fuel pumps and fuel filters.


He advised me on changing the flex coupling??? I think thats the what its called. I guess theres some cracks on it, so I will change that in the summer.

He also told me the motor mounts are bad and to change them soon to. other then that he said he was very impressed and thoguht the car was kept in good shape overall.


T he only problem I had was when I got there the key that I gave him didn't work on locking and un-locking the doors with the button. But opened them all up manually. So he tells me that the key must of been droped or whatever.

So I think ok well at least I got my other key at the house that will work. So i got back to my house and try my other key and nothing at all either. Hmmm the green and red light don't even come on at all or anything with either of the keys. So I figure it's not the keys right?


My question is do you have to re-program the key, or what could be the problem once changing the vaccum pump that would make it so the keys dont work with the button?
