Lol, this car pisses me off, think i might sell it. yes my temper is bad enough to sell a car for a fuse. lol.


if the fuel pump had shat itself it wouldn't start on petty but it would go on GAS.

Just get a boxcar :roll:

My EB Fairmont hesitated to start a couple of weeks ago. The problem was one of the 10A fuses which also controls the radio.

as mentioned earlier in the thread - the CRT LP fuse. this fuses the BEM which immobilises the car.
