Well it started fine the next morning! I drove it to work this am. Made it thru kids carpool line. Drove 35 miles up the freeway to work. When I crossed the rough rail road tracks a mile from work she quit while running about 40 mph. Flashing check engine light. Blinking low fuel light. I coast into a parking lot where I left it all dAy. Just tried to go back over to where I left it and start it. No go. $50 tow the 1 mile to my office and that's where she sits now

I did not realize I bought a bastard yr model car. Should have read up in my v8 powered benzs before running out and buying one. Now I understand the phrase " a cheap benz is the most expensive one you can buy". Lol

I'm glad it's just a 3rd car beater
